Connor - Malayan Tiger

Here are a few new pictures of Connor, the Malayan Tiger at the San Diego Zoo, taken between January and April of this year.  Connor recently had his fourth birthday, on April 2.




He's gotten pretty good at picking up food with his paw.


Here's a shot we won't be getting in the future.  They've re-worked the tiger enclosure and split it into two sections, so that they can have more than one tiger out on view at a time.  In order to do that they closed off the access from the upper to the lower pond, and built a big stone wall where this ledge he's standing on in this next picture used to be.



Connor is temporarily staying at the other end of the Zoo while they re-do the landscaping in his yard.  It's not a very good place for pictures, but I've managed to get a few.  Last I heard he is scheduled to move back home in mid to late May.
