But that is me with a wild mountain Gorilla in the jungle in Uganda. That patch of black fur in the background is the gorilla. This is a much better photo from someone who was with me with a much better camera, but the one above is the only proof I haven't just googled these photos.

We'll never know. froggg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn't me, but it's one of the girls I was with. That's the cage that was all that was between us and the sharks. They really are big buggers.

TigerTedd Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Sorry if I'm monopolising the thread, allow me to indulge myself for a moment, I've found a rich vein of cool photos and I'm remeniscing. "https://scontent-a-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-prn2/t1.0-9/377_543356365078_2756_n" alt="377_543356365078_2756_n"> This is me with a Tiger in Thailand. Not strictly speaking wild, but not particularly tame either. And before you cry mistreatment, this is at the tiger temple where Buddhist monks look after orphaned tigers, and raise money for their upkeep by letting people come and see them. They're not drugged, just naturally drowsy during the day. froggg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerTedd Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 And because there seem to be a lot of bird lovers on this thread. I don't actually know what this one is, perhaps someone can enlighten me: "https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-frc3/t1.0-9/321_537404153358_3413_n" alt="321_537404153358_3413_n"> And this one is a Condor. Very cool birds, but pretty ugly up close, like a huge turkey.

I really should go and get my breakfast. I might do this again one day though. I've got more where this came from. froggg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyram Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 Those are awesome pics. If I had to pick a fave it'd be the tiger. I've seen some awful pictures on Twitter when these gorgeous animals are shot dead, it's great to know there are some who look after them too. It must be great to be able to have these experiences with them. Think the closest I've ever been is having a Silverback throw an apple at me at Edinburgh Zoo. Cheeky bugger had a cracking aim too, it whizzed past my head from about 40 yards lolol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TigerTedd Posted March 18, 2014 Share Posted March 18, 2014 I remember my nanna knocking on the glass at twycross, until the silverback charged at her and she about shat herself. They're scary tickets when they get riled up. What was cool though was that a baby and mother were sat in a tree, but the baby fell out of a tree and ino a bit if a fully while we were there. They're tough buggers, so it wasn't hurt, but it was stuck. The family all got together to form a rescue party. It was fascinating to watch. They ripped a branch off a tree and stripped it down to make a pole, and hooked the baby out, while the mother was getting anxious. You don't see that in a zoo. An it showed just how human they are. A year later I heard those gorillas were killed by terrorists from the Democratic Republic of Congo. There you go, a nice depressing thought in time for your tea.
