Tigers Must Be Tougher Than We Are!
I popped into the Tiger Territory at the zoo and was half expecting to find that the tigers were fast asleep in the warm somewhere!
But as the pictures show, at least the male tiger; Jae Jae, was showing himself off.
But we mustn’t forget that tigers aren’t averse to water and have regularly been seen in snow in Siberia in wildlife programmes.
On the other hand, these are Sumatran tigers, more used to sun and rain than snow!
It was also rather pleasing to see that there were quite a few visitors. Many seemed to be from overseas. I actually talked to some Germans, Ecuadorians and Chinese, who’d come to London for Christmas.

At Knowsley Safari Park, the lions and tigers used to love the snow, playing in it, batting it each other etc

This tiger certainly didn’t seem to ind getting wet and cold.
