While my wife and I were at the zoo a few days ago for an event, we made sure to stop by the big cats to get some pictures. I have a fascination with big cats and have loved them for a very long time.
When I was in Tanzania a few years ago, we went on a safari and one of my favorite parts was being so close to these majestic animals. I remember being within just a couple feet from lions and it was such an amazing experience.
While we were there at the zoo, the male lions were roaring pretty loudly and it was so cool. There roars were very deep and you could feel the power in your chest. It would be so scary to be out in the wild and hear that and wonder where these animals were.
I hope you enjoy these shots I got of the big cats that were on display at the Hogle Zoo. I wish the jaguar would have been more active while were there, but it still looked really cool sleeping.
