Stalking Ducks

Uploaded: December 09, 2012

Description

All three siblings were VERY EXCITED about the prospect of catching a duck.
This is the same enclosure that a crazy man leapt into from the Bronx Zoo Sky Ride. The Dad of these cubs got a piece of him before being scared off with fire-extinguishers . He survived and the Tiger is none the worse for the experience .

Great shot, wonderful pov and color. Should have let the tigers have the guy that jumped in, that way he would have qualified for the Darwin Award. #10461038
