Tuan, the male Siberian tiger at the Adelaide Zoo, successfully tracks down the cunningly concealed meat treats placed by his keeper around his enclosure.
Canon EOS 400D, Canon L 400mm EF lens (fixed), 1/250th, f/5.6, ISO 400. As is, straight from the camera.
Thanks Mark, he is absolutely splendid … when I was Keeper for the Day, we had the opportunity to go behind the scenes and one of us (not me, unfortunately!!!) got to feed him through the wires. He is huge, and fearsome, and overwhelming …

Tuan looks like he’s enjoying his treats :)
He didn’t miss a single one, as far as we could tell.
