Well to be honest THE PHOTO SAYS IT BEST! Rocky Giving the guy a rasberry!

His list of accredited places is limited to zoos and LARGE rescue operations and I don't even think that the accrediting groups would even deal with a location with 4 cats and a camel.

And a comment about how much you're going to enjoy your new tiger coat this winter!

(I'm kidding of course! Just a way to stir up the idiot who made the comments.)

I want to make it out there some time to take my own photos.

I wonder if he realizes if it weren't for zoos, some species of animals would be extinct by now. Also, I have seen and have known some wildlife photographers taking photos in the wild that have endangered the animal and themselves more than if the animal was in a zoo.

Here's an idea - 08-19-2006, 08:11 AM


I say tell him you have seen the light and he helped show you the way.

Then take a photo of the cheapest stuffed toy tiger you can find with it's head sticking out of some weeds and say you are practicing on these until you can save the money for your safari. Ask him if he would like to buy the the toy tiger photo to help support your trip?

Its interesting to how different people react.

When I read you original post, and read the caption, a smile poped in my face. It sure is a funny caption. I wish I thought of it. You have good sense of humor.

As some one else posted, you are wasting your time to convince some one who what ever reason found it offensive. You cannot please all the people all the time. From the response at this forum, it looks like most people find it interesting caption, not an offensive one. Don't loose your sleep over it.

Bt the way excellent shot. I used to live in Plano long ago. I did not know about this place. Next time I head up there, I should visit this park, I have heard quite a bit about this park at this forum. Thanks for the picture.
