Panda Bear:Chiang Mai Zoo

The panda bears at the Chiang Mai Zoo recently gave a rare birth, if memory serves me correctly.
The Chiang Mai Zoo was much better than the zoo located outside of Bangkok. To give you an idea as to how bad the zoo is in Bangkok, the polar bear exhibit was all outside; the poor polar bear was roasting to death in the tropical heat.

White Tigers at Singapore Zoo
August 19th, 2009 by damonbillian | No Comments | Filed in Big Cat Photographs and Photos, Tiger Photos, Wildlife Photography and Photos, Zoo Photography and Photos
Singapore Zoo has been the best zoo I have been to during my travels (I even liked it better than the San Diego Zoo!) Most of the animals at the zoo have fairly “natural” exhibits, which means they have a fair amount of space to roam around in.
The white tigers in this picture killed some suicidal keeper around November of 2008!
Out of all of the animals in the animal kingdom, the big cats are the ones I love the most.

Similan Islands: Thailand

I don’t know what the name of this fish is, but the people leading the snorkeling trip said that this fish will bite if it feels like it is being followed.
The Similan Islands are a beautiful, remote area to do some snorkeling (or diving) off of the western coast of Thailand (about two hours by boat from places like Phuket or Khao Lak); my wife and I booked an overnight stay there, something I would recommend if you are going to spend a fair amount of time in or around the Phuket area. While Phuket is indeed beautiful, the Similan Islands provide a good opportunity to get away from the crowds.

Sumatran Tigers Fighting: San Francisco Zoo

This is a picture at the San Francisco Zoo, a picture that was made much more difficult because of the security procedures now in place because of the tiger attack a few years ago (fence, security glass, etc.).
