Description As many of you know I love taking pictures big cats, and Dudley Zoo(Dudley, West midlands, UK) has a rather special one, I am a member there so I can go as often as I like but sadly Nanga is not always posing for photographs.

However I got fairly lucky on the 7th september as she was not only out and about but also being quite playful and importantly not sticking to the highest areas of her enclosure.

This is the best of about 14 shots I took of her that day, I even tried some video but it didnt turn out too well...D'oh!

Glad you like the picture

Yes she is doing very well , seems to have adjusted well to her enclosure - they have a new male Snow Leopard 'Margash' who has been added recently but they are being kept apart initially so we will see how that goes.
