Love the shots, really crisp and detailed, how is the Zoo after all the negative press of late?

Re: pair of leopards

I really enjoyed it tony tbh these were taken during a brief break in the weather as it rained every day we were in the lakes .but given better conditions I would return to this zoo ,plus it's free entry till the end of the year to .apparently the BBC were filming somewhere on site as well

Re: pair of leopards

Well it is refreshing to see a Zoo that appears to consider the viewers and the photographers, the snow leopards at Twycross display is excellent, the glass walled cafe looks overit, however the amur leopards are in a mutli linked room of brown painted breeze blocks that are neither attractive, natural or photogenic and appear cramped for the anmals.

This is the cafe / restaurant view when being built, windows on left are the cafe.

But this is a disgrace and wants tearing down

you can see the depth of it in this image and it is made up of about 4 or 5 compartments that have had a opening cut in them, they tend to pace up and down the fence internally when I have seen them
