Description

Featured in #SkyAndNatureClub 's Under-Appreciated here: [link]

A picture of our male tiger, Waldemere, taking a little bath. He's a recent addition to our zoo and at first, he was quite the cranky kitty. But he has calmed considerably now and is doing quite well.

I don't know if he and the female have met yet but I'm hoping they'll have a nice large batch of tiger kittens. Last time our female bred, she had 5 kittens, which was very impressive! So here's hoping it'll happen again.

I edited this a bit, as you can likely tell. The colors came out a little screwy, thanks to the sun reflecting off the water, the shadows, Waldemere's own colors and other various factors. But I actually like the bit of tint it gives.

Same! Our zoo's attempts have been successful a few times so with any luck, there will be some new tiger kittens.

Thank you so much! He's certainly a good stud-muffin for our female. And judging by his expression, I think he knows so.

Wow, he's gorgeous! I love this shot, it's just so warm and summery seeming. I'm so envious you have such close access to such an awesome zoo.

He's a GIANT. I mean, all tigers are huge but he's definitely a bulky guy.

Truth be told, I'd be envious of myself as well.

Thank you! You'd never guess it was taken in October. But then, October is still summer for us.

I'm envious of that, too! I'm freezing right now.

I wish it were cold here! We were in the 80s up until a few days before Halloween. Then it dropped to the 40s which was AWESOME but today we were back up in the 60s. -_-
