Sumatran Tiger

I know there are hundreds of photographs of the animals at Chester already, however I wanted to share some of my good ones from today and would be grateful for any feedback :).

It's the best you could do with that enclosure, considering the fake looking resting platforms they have. I was surprised when I went that the premiere zoo in the UK has such mediocre lion and tiger exhibits, especially considering these are among the most popular animals. Same can be said for the lion and tiger enclosures at the other two UK zoos I have seen (Port Lympne and London).
 
I am afraid Jordan that in this case you are unfortunately incorrect. That is Fabi. Kirana has a different facial markings and a gap in one of the stripes above her left eye.

Wouldn't be suprised if this enclosure was replaced when Natural Vision gets underway (during the next 5 years hopefully)
 
My mistake i have heard that Fabi is only aloud on the top part of the platform when Kirana is in season?
Regards Jordan.

Used to be but I have been seeing him up there more often. It all really depends where Kirana is and what she is doing.
