BIG CATS
pictures are all mine
One of the most beautiful and capable hunters in the animal kingdom is my favourite creatures in the world
my dream as a child was to pet a big cat which of course my parents laughed hard about yet still i was amazed by these animals and finally last year on my visit to Malaysia I saw these animals closely and i was glad to see how well they are kept in the zoo providing them every thing they love . but sadly these creatures are in a great danger every year they are been hunt down and used as trophies by hunters around the globe .
There are two main kinds of tigers the Bengal tiger and and the Siberian tiger
following is in an image of a Bengal tiger from the zoo of Malaysia
I was very happy to see this creature living happily although he is in captivity yet provided with better chances of surviving then other tigers which are being hunt down across India and are being hunt down for amusement .
That being said Indian Government recently banned to the hunting for tigers still very few are left and people and wild life organizations are trying to save these cats
following is an image of a white lion with very few of them alive I was lucky enough to get a picture with one
No doubt this is the most beautiful big cat alive along with the Liger and Tigon
LIGER
The liger is a hybrid cross between male lion and female tiger which is an even bigger cat then lion or tiger
Although a cat like this can only be created by hybrid method but still it is really beautiful and these kind of experiments are very useful to get to know about these creatures
