I am very fortunate in my life to have the opportunity to work with some amazing animals. Most of my experience has been working with tigers, and lions at Six Flags in Vallejo, CA, the Oregon Tiger Sanctuary, and Wildlife Companions in Rio Vista, CA. My work with the big cats eventually led me to conservation and eco-tourism in Ethiopia.
Here is one of the white tigers I have worked with. I just fed him his food, and he is very possessive over his meal. They are always aggressive while eating.
Devastating news from Amboseli National Park in Kenya. One of the best-loved big matriarchs, Qumquat, was slaughtered by poachers, along with her two young daughters. Her youngest daughter was found alongside the carcasses, and she was rescued with the help of David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust. Her 6-month-old grandson is missing.
