Halloween at the Zoo

The keepers in their wisdom gave the lions some pumpkins to play with. It was difficult to get shots because people were crowding round the windows, and there was a film crew doing its stuff. There were also some sacks lying around, and I can only suppose they had infused them with catnip, 'cos the big cats were rubbing round them like kittens. There was so much movement going on it was a challenge to get pictures that weren't blurred.






When he'd had enough of the ruckus outside the window, the big male turned tail and tried to give us a shower!

  1. Male backsides seem to be a bit of a theme here lately.

  2. No kidding Val! Hmmm, what would Freud say? ;)

    By the way, yesterday must've been pumpkin day at all the zoos b/c they showed video on our news of the Woodland Park Zoo animals eating pumpkins.
