Do Tigers Climb Trees?

Do tigers climb trees?  Yes, they do.

Here's Cinta, one of the Malayan Tigers at the San Diego Zoo, at around 6:30pm one evening about two weeks ago.  There was no one else around, it was really quiet.  He was just sitting there, probably watching his older brother who was in the next enclosure.  I'm sure he had a pretty good view from up there.


Here's a closer crop of the same image.

50 Artists 50 Fish

There is a great little art exhibit currently on at the Japanese Friendship Garden in Balboa Park in San Diego.  50 different artists were invited to produce an artwork of a fish which would be placed each on a 2' x 2' black matte tile, laid out in a grid pattern on the floor of the exhibition pavilion.  Here are just a few of them. 




The exhibit runs through July 15.  Click here to see a few more images.
     

Amur Leopards and Malayan Tigers - San Diego Zoo

I got to spend some quality time this morning with Connor, the Malayan Tiger at the San Diego Zoo.  I also got to see the new Amur Leopard cubs for a bit as well.  




The little Amur Leopard cubs are growing quickly.  The Zoo announced last week that they are both girls.  It's going to be fun to watch them grow up.






Meanwhile, their mother Satka was keeping an eye on all of us.
