She couldn't get enough of them. |

Tigers of India. They are from the Marcan Tiger Preserve in Florida. |
Not much of a crowd on this cold day. |
Hot Chocolate...Yum. |
A golden tabby Bengal tiger. A very rare color but completely natural. |
|
He's not even full grown yet and see how tall he is. |
A white tiger and a snow tiger. They are sister and brother. |
All four color variations. |
Our announcer. He looks a little chilly. |
