Zoo - Lion Cubs Attack ;)
(Note: I still need to make some minor color adjustments and noise reduction, but my home computer is being rebuilt (*groan*) so these were processed with my crappy work computer.)
This past Sunday, I decided to make my first visit of the year to see how the little cubs were doing (this was my second visit to see them). The tiger cubs are getting really big, but were unfortunately sleeping in a location that I couldn't take any pictures, but I did get plenty of opportunity to see the lion cubs. The first visit, they were a little sleepy except for one little trouble maker, but the second visit was hilarious. They were ganging up on mom :-) They act just like every other cat, crouching down with their tails in the air and "springing" on their "prey". Momma Lion is still very protective. She keeps an eye on everyone in the crowd (and seems to zoom in on those with bigger lenses, as I have seen with other photographers around). Enjoy!
Oh, there are 4 lion cubs and 3 tiger cubs at our zoo.
The cubs are just laying around enjoying the afternoon sun....
When, this little guy starting looking around and decided to go hunting...
Gotcha!
Ok, that was fun for a few minutes, but Mom really shouldn't be laying around. She should be playing with me!
Aha!!!
Gotcha!
Then, Mom gets annoyed with the kids, so she decides to take a walk and check out all the people.
When out of nowhere (Ok we saw him getting ready to attack)... this little one leaped on her back...
Finally, Mom had it. She chased the youngster up the tree... I love his face in this one, he just looks so mischievous!
And, just for grins, I like to think this is dad next door, while mom is dealing with the kids...
