Tigers and tigers and tigers, oh my.

We went to the allatkert on Saturday. It was wicked cool. Zoos are educational places. You can even learn a foreign language there. I learned that "Mate Strada" is Siberian for "tiger food."



I was chilling, watching the tigers walk around when the biggest, meanest tiger caught sight of my ruddy cheeks and my bite-sized body. He then laid down in front of me in a pouncing pose. At least that is how az anyam and az apam saw it.

I viewed it as the tiger recognizing that the lion may be the king of the jungle, but Mate is on his way to being king of the world. The kitty cat was just paying homage.
