It was a very cold day, there was snow on the ground. But the tigers were gorgeous, and I took lots of photos.

Wow great pic Bwassa! I always find that big cats are more beautiful in cold weather :). The last time i was at South Lakes (Aug 2008) they had separated their sumatran tigers Padang & Aleesha bcos they wanted them to become more ''interested'' in one another; as both cats were paired from a young age, the keepers at South Lakes had a theory that the cats saw one another as siblings rather than mates attributing to the fact that the havent had any cubs yet. Anyway instead of waffling on i was just going to ask you bwassa if the two sumatran tigers were in the exhibit together whilst you were there..??
 
Hi Jonny,

Glad you like the photo.
Yes, they were both out when we visited.
 
cool as, sumatran tiger plus snow would look really cool.
 
Breathtakingly good shot! He appears even more massive thanks to the 200/325 mm angle. Brilliant!
