Big Cats

  • Lions
  • Tigers
  • Leopards

The grace, strength and beauty of big cats holds a special fascination.  Intelligent, powerful and agile, big cats are skilled hunters who rely on stealth, camouflage and lightning-speed reactions.  But many big cats are endangered and sadly the main threat is human activity.  Big cats are killed for their beautiful fur and body parts, their homes are destroyed, and captive animals are exploited in zoos and circuses.
