Watching
Best if viewed large. Moments before this shot was taken two teenage boys got to scuffling just outside the cage. This cat and a larger one ran to the edge of the cage (chain link fencing), stood on hind legs and tried their best to get into the fracus. A zoo keeper immediately put a stop to the boys fun and pointed to the two tigers who were still leaning against the fence. Just one look is all it took! She explained that such things get the big cats excited and that is something you just don't want to do. The boys settled down immediately. I'm 6 feet 3 inches tall and the larger cat towered over me. Who knows what would have happened if the fencing had not been there?
