Jaguars get a pool!

[petardier]

I never managed to see the last set of cubs using their pool. The zoo people seem to have given them pool privileges earlier this time, so there will be more opportunities.


Apparently there are few better jaguar pool toys than a sibling's tail.


Though jaguars can shake themselves dry very effectively, their tails continue to drip for quite some time after leaving the water.

thank you for reminding me to go to the zoo! We saw the jaguars but they weren't swimming. Oh, so cute! We finally got around to joining the zoo, too.

oh yes, so very cute....

...that is until one of them gets a bit older, jumps up and tackles you with forepaws tearing into your shoulders while hind claws tear the contents of your midsection out. Yes, wonderfully cute creates they are.

Some time soon I'll post a photo of a cub trying to perform this maneuver on a pool toy. It's still cute.
