Tigers Like Water

Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium promotes and practices effective conservation on behalf of the world’s wildlife. On my trip this past summer, I got a chance to check out some of the zoo's amazing wildlife. Malosi, a tiger from Honolulu Zoo in Hawaii, has come to Tacoma to breed with Jaya, the zoo's female tiger and mother of the two tiger cubs born in 2010. One of the cubs is licking a whip cream treat in the following video.

Dora Found a Bird Bath

During the warm summer months, I have been taking Tion and Dora outside to enjoy the fresh air of our backyard. Dora has this ritual where she will make a circuit around the backyard, investigating everything in her path. This day she decided to focus on the bird bath.
