Had a lovely day at Whipsnade yesterday thanks to @Gremlin very kindly sending me some half price vouchers - thank you!

It was a pretty bleak and grey day which made the photography side of things challenging - but it was crazy to see how the tiger cubs have grown even since our last visit in December so I was pleased to get a few shots of them. C&C always welcome...

They are lovely - could watch them all day :)
 
You got some great poses there Fi (y)
 
All cute as buttons, last 3 for me.
 
Great set, First...you got some belters there.
So cute aren't they.
Was enjoying them for so long a couple of weeks ago that the nice zoo person asked if we'd care to leave...20 minutes after closing time ..:LOL:
 
Cute, but look at the width of the front legs and paws. You wouldn't want to get hit by them.

No... I think you would end up somewhat mangled!

When I was there a couple or so weeks back, they were doing "Health checks" taking blood etc.
When Dad stood upright against the fence ( for food) he towered over the keepers, easily by 3 feet, the young'uns at full stretch were as tall as the keeper!
Just goes to show eh?
 
If anyone wants to play tug-of-war with a tiger or lion, Dartmoor Zoo were offering the chance for teams of 4 to have a go (much to PETA's annoyance!).

Good luck!
