Baby White Tigers

I have pictures of this foursome but they are prints and I do not have a scanner. As soon as I can get them on a disk I will put them on this blog.

When I first met them they wee in a sectioned off part of the park where the most pedestrian traffic was.

What I remember most is they were perpetual motion running for all they were worth from one fence to the other. Then, all of a sudden, they would just drop in their tracks and be sound asleep.

Later, they were moved to the baby animal nursery where they had a shallow pool to play in. Two of them loved it and were in it a lot of the time. One would have nothing to do with it. I don't remember about the fourth one. Did you know that tigers like water? I, also, have a picture of a grown one swimming in the moat at their display.

It was not long before they were too big for any of the keepers to be in the display with them.

Finally, they were moved to the adult compound. They traded days on display with the rest of the tigers.

If I remember any more, I will come back and add it.
