No. she was handraised because her mother didn't accept her. Now she doesn't get contact with humans anymore but still she is curious and watches everyone who walks by her enclosure.
No, it's an ordinary zoo phoot. I just always stay very long at her enclosure when I'm there and also sometimes talk to the keepers. That's why I know her background story.
I have some photos of other animals, too. But somehow I always get stucked at the big cats enclosures. I can't really explain why, I just like them best. But I also got some bird shots and photos of the (not so small) rhino baby Kibibi.
One turned out pretty well. I guess I will submit it sooner or later. The owl shots were not that amzing but they get a new enclosure soon and then I can hopefully take more photos of them.

Thank you. :D She's an adoreable cat. I also thought about stealing her a few times. So far I just haven't found a bag which is big enough for her.

Hahaha! i think that way too. I thought it was yours. :)

Lol, I wish but unfortunatle it's not allowed here to keep leopards at home. She lives in a zoo.

He has "rub my tummy" written all over his face, if I wasn't convinced I'd lose my arm in the process.
Jun 28th, 2011 Replyvelvet-paw
Hehe, it's a female. And she is pretty tame and not really big so I guess the arm would survive it. ;)
Jun 28th, 2011 ReplyThebuild
I didn't realize she was tame, is she a rescue animal then?
