Winter
Zoo |
The
Siberian Tiger was impressive! A superb animal weighing some
900 lbs. Found in Northern Siberia, this beautiful cat was right
at home in the winter weather! |
|
This
Arctic Fox stopped just long enough to capture this pose. As
in the wild, they are very skittish and are constantly on the
move. |
|
Passing
the elephant enclosure, I noticed this pachyderm was hesitant
to step outside. He extended his trunk to sample the snow and
it seemed he was trying to decide whether to venture out. He
decided to stay in. I can't say I blamed him. The temperature
had risen to 26!! |
|
Lions
in the snow! These magnificent animals were posing nicely and
were not concerned about the snow and cold!! |
|
Camels
in the snow! An amazing sight! Zebras too! |
|
The
Giraffes were in their inside habitat called the "Giraffe
House" and it turned out to be the perfect spot for us to
warm up as well! |
|
Next
stop... Polar Bear Habitat! The Polar Bears were in their element.
Perfect weather for romping!! They captivated me for over an
hour with their antics! Mother bear was magnificent. Her coat
perfectly white and along with her two one year old cubs, provided
the entertainment for over an hour. |
