Usually a tag team like this isn’t really fair, but somehow I think that Mama Tiger can handle herself with these two. :) It’s nice to see tiger breeding programs in action, as tigers are on the critically endangered list. Unfortunately, these beautiful animals are the white bengal variant, which is not found naturally in the wild and is a product of the white tiger breeding trade. These beautiful and innocent tiger cubs were not bred by the zoo; rather, the mother tiger was rescued from a breeder and she was already pregnant when the zoo rescued her. In fact, the American Zoological Association prohibits its members from acquiring and breeding white tigers because the rate of genetic defects is high and the white tiger trade engages in terribly unethical practices.

Sorry to all those who don’t like “pets and babies” photos… ;) This is my kitty trying to catch a fly on the window last night… The sun was coming down into our living room which gave that nice glow on one side of his face. I was originally going to make it all black & white but I just couldn’t bring myself to leave his gorgeous blue eye out!

I don’t think it is a coincidence that the eyes of a white bengal tiger are blue, as they always seem to be filled with sadness… As you probably know, I take a lot of photos of white bengal tigers. But I always have mixed feelings when I upload them… Yes, the animals are stunning, but the white tiger isn’t something that is found in nature, and is a product of humans breeding them for the “white tiger trade.” All white tigers can be traced back to a single tiger born with a genetic mutation in the 1950s that created a white coat and blue eyes. This tiger’s “owner” immediately saw dollar signs and started to breed him to produce other white tigers. Naturally, this required a great deal of inbreeding, which has led to many white tigers having all sorts of genetic problems. Not only this, but about 3/4 of the cubs born in the white tiger trade are actually orange. These “undesirables” are either killed or sold to game farms where brave hunters pay to shoot and kill these captive animals. Because of these horribly unethical practices, the American Zoological Association prohibits its members from purchasing white tigers from such breeders and from breeding them due to the high rate of genetic defects. All of the white tigers I have photographed have been those that were fortunate enough to have been rescued from the breeding trade (including the shot Tag Team ). Most white tigers aren’t so lucky. You can help put an end to this trade by not going to circuses and animal parks that purchase white tigers from breeders. When the demand ceases, this practice will cease as well. This shot was taken with a 50mm macro lens and isn’t a crop… Yes, I was that close!! 100% of the profits from the sale of this image will be donated to Big Cat Rescue.

This is the first in a series I foresee doing, to increase awareness to the plight of endangered and threatened animals from around the globe. This First Edition focuses on three of the largest and most endangered carnivores today, the Sumatran tiger, the Amur leopard, and the Snow leopard. These are by no means the only imperiled wild cats, as the majority of wild cat species smaller in average body size than 30 kg are at a critical stage. / / / Because without these animals I would never be able to bring their beauty to you, I am going to pledge to donate 100% of all of my sales proceeds from cards and prints of the imagery in this series here on Redbubble to Wildlife Conservation Society Thank you for your support in the race to stave off the extinction of these magnificent creatures.

What drew me to this shot (apart from the stunning beauty of the jaguar) was that here she was, trying to hide behind trees and leaves, yet she was literally just glowing in the sunlight… As if she couldn’t hide her beauty and strength no matter how hard she tried… I’m sure you know people in your life like this, or maybe even you yourself are like this… They hide behind screen names or job roles or maybe just shyness, but their personality, their inner glow, isn’t able to be hidden and just shines on… The jaguar is classified as a near-threatened species, which means that they could be threatened with extinction in the near future. Their main threats are deforestation, poaching, and conflicts with ranchers who kill them. However, things have gotten a little better for the jaguar; during the 1960s, their numbers saw serious declines due to the pelt trade, with around 15,000 jaguar skins being shipped out of South America each year. But the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species in 1973 decreased that number sharply, which just goes to show that positive legislation and treaties really can make a difference in helping species survive. 100% of the profits from the sale of this image will be donated to Wildlife Warriors Worldwide.

Most people see strength and power when they look at the begal tiger. However, I see vulnerability for this critically endangered species. We have lost three subspecies of tiger in the past 50 years due to hunting: the Balinese tiger, the Javan tiger, and the Caspian tiger. The south China tiger is extinct in the wild, as the last known tiger of this subspecies was shot and killed in 1994. The remaining tigers are dependent upon for their survival the very same species that is causing their numbers to decline from illegal poaching: humans. I’d say that’s a pretty vulnerable position in which to find oneself. / . / Click to see all of my tiger photos. / . / 100% of the profits from the sale of this image will be donated to Big Cat Rescue.

This is the unframed version without a quote attached. There have been requests for this version. Captive “The youth, intoxicated with his admiration of a hero, fails to see, that it is only a projection of his own soul, which he admires.” Ralph Waldo Emerson Who is you’re hero? / / Name: Panthera tigris sumatrae (Sumatran Tiger) Description: The Sumatran tiger has the darkest coat of all tigers. Its broad, black stripes are closely spaced and often doubled. Unlike the Siberian tiger, it has striped forelegs. Sumatran tigers are the smallest tiger subspecies. Males average 2.4 meters (8 feet) in length from head to tail and weigh about 120 kilograms (264 pounds). Females measure approximately 2.2 meters (7 feet) in length and weigh about 90 kilograms (198 pounds). Distribution: The Sumatran tiger is found only on the Indonesian island of Sumatra in habitat that ranges from lowland forest to submontain and montain forest with some peat-moss forest. Biology: The Sumatran tiger eats wild pig, big deer (called rusa), and small deer (called muntjak or barking deer). The specific range size of this tiger is not know, however the population density is approximately 4–5 adult tigers/100 km 2 (39 mile 2) in optimal lowland rainforest. As elevation increases through submontain and montain forests, the number of tigers in any given area decreases because there is less prey available. Status in the wild: 400-500 wild Sumatran tigers were believed to exist in 1998, primarily in the island’s national park areas, but no island-wide census or monitoring system has been possible. Tiger numbers have continued to decline because of poaching of tigers to supply the illegal trade in tiger parts. The last remnants of lowland forest are being eliminated to establish oil palm plantations and for shifting agriculture by recent settlers from other areas of Sumatra and Indonesia. Ongoing road development makes many formerly inaccessible mountain areas accessible to illegal logging even on the steepest slopes, and many mountainous areas are being converted into plantations for coffee and other products for international markets. Tigers are legally protected but are not highly valued. Captive breeding: For three years, the Indonesian Zoological Parks’ Association (PKBSI) has been working with the Tiger Global Conservation Strategy to develop a conservation program for Sumatran tigers. In addition to the 65 Sumatran tigers living in Indonesian zoos, there are 55 tigers managed by North American zoos, 100 in European zoos, and 12 in Australasian zoos. This captive population is descended from 37 wild-caught founders. The Indonesian Sumatran Tiger Masterplan now has the potential to function as the heart of the Sumatran tiger population worldwide. It is designed to preserve sufficient genetic diversity to reinforce both captive and wild populations, thus fulfilling its goal to ensure that the in situ tiger program comprises verifiable founders permanently identified and registered in the Indonesian Sumatran Tiger Studbook. It also extends the capabilities of Indonesian zoo staff to professionally manage their tiger programs in Indonesia, and at the same time serves as a model for other range country tiger management programs in Southeast Asia.

This is a gorgeous female jaguar prowling through the water on a hot summer’s day. Although she is a “black jaguar,” she is actually no different from her lighter-colored brothers and sisters; she simply has a gene that makes the orange-yellow coloring instead a dark, rich brown. In fact, it is her twin sister that is shown in the photo Nap Time. We see the same thing with human skin tones—small genetic variations produce a variety of skin pigmentations. What’s funny is that it wouldn’t occur to a jaguar to discriminate against another jaguar based upon the colors of its coat… so why does it occur to us humans to do it? 100% of the profits from the sale of this print will be donated to the Steve Irwin’s Wildlife Warriors.

. / My 2008 Calendar is now on sale – Click Here / . Unlike the other big cats, Cheetah’s cannot roar, but they do purr. Like most of the other animals I have photographed, Cheetah’s are a vulnerable species due to habitat loss and hunting by man. Despite being the oldest of the big cats (appearing millions of years ago) they may be the first to go. Sadly, this photograph may last longer than the species, if we continue to kill them. 50% of my profits from my Cheetah photos will go to the Cheetah Conservation Fund. . / . . / Click to see more of my photographic artwork / Click to visit me! / / . / .

This was one of the feral kittens born to feral parents (an orange tabby and and a grey striped tabby) – Oscar (the orange) was very friendly with me. He lost his mamma as a kitten (spent his kitten-hood in our back yard with the little striped tabby). I don’t know where they ‘stayed’, but they came to my backdoor every morning for water and food (they knew I was such a sucker). The following spring there were four new little faces – this photo was just one of the kittens. I fed all 6 of them all summer, but worried about them over the coming winter that was to come. In October we live-trapped them and took them to the shelter where, happily, they all found homes – the kittens were parceled out one at a time (that made me sad) and Oscar and Mama (that’s what we called her) went together to a farm. 75% of my profit from all sales of this card will be donated to the local animal shelter.
