    Dublin Zoo is one of the worlds most successful breeders of Lions. At the time of this shot, they were housed in old style Victorian cages inside the Russell House, - a lovely building in itself. Their space was quite small, and you could get very close to the big cats. Thats when Zoos were for people, now Zoos are for animals.

    A beautiful creature, yet so dangerous! He has a humble look in his eyes, which we all know is very deceiving!

    This moggy might want something more substantial than a saucer of milk!

    Patrick Castelli I'm sure if Mr Flood had his sleeves rolled up, we'd see some scratches alright...
  • Brian Mulligan said:
    I'll bet Dublin Zoo could tell you more, including the name of the cat! Lovely image, Mr Flood looks like he would prefer to leave the cat down soon!!!
  • TOYPINCHER said:
    what a great picture .. i love looking what they used to wear .. when you first see Mr Flood he looks quite smart don't you think? till you study his clothes and they are all filthy

    Brian Mulligan Got Mr Flood's name from the Irish Independent - that's where the photo originally appeared.

    Some pussycat with choppers like those! Great shot and some expression on Pussy's face! Of all the big cats I just love Tigers, they fascinate me!
  • Débora said:
    very intense expression indeed!
  • Niall McAuley said:
    This tiger would have been caged in the red brick Roberts house, so your location is extremely accurate!

    Swordscookie And now the tigers in Dublin Zoo have a great time! Not stuck in cages at all, but now with carefully designed habitats... Watched the Zoo programme on RTÉ that was filmed during the snowpocalypse last year, and it was incredible to watch these beautiful creatures bounding around in the snow, having an absolute ball. Such gorgeous markings!

    Débora Imagine being a small (or large) mammal facing that expression with nothing between you and those incisors!
