The snow leapord didn't seem that impressed though.

Great timing on the Meerkat shots. The snow leopard is nice too.

Snoozle, I'm glad you posted these shots. I love the meerkat action shots and then the contrasts of behaviour between them and the snow leopard. Fantastic.

Thanks for the comments, and well spotted Shazz501, these were indeed taken at Marwell. I will be back there on the 28th of this month, as I see they are hosting a Wildlife Travel & Photo show. In fact I bought a year long pass, so will most probably be a very frequent visitor over the next 12 months.

The meerkats were giving you a full out action show! I like the snow leapord shot as well.


Thanks for looking!
