Both of these images seem funny to me. Maybe I'm tired, but they just don't look right...
Anyway, these were taken at a local science center which displays some wildlife that's either injured or for some reason can't survive in the wild. The mountain lions came to the center when a farmer in the western USA shot their mother. When he found that she had little ones he tracked them down to save them. They found themselves at the science center at 8 weeks of age. Some adorable pictures of them as kittens can be found at the bottom of the page here
.
Some of the other animals there were obviously injured and could not survive in the wild. They live at the center in natural habitats.
One of the two Bobcats. This is the one that would stay still most of the time. The other paced like a madman.
One of the Mountain Lions. I spent 10 minutes begging him to move or even look up. I was up to 2 sirloins and a prime rib when I gave up. Two minutes after I left he got up when 3 young girls came along. When the girls leaned against the glass he jumped up and started licking the glass as if he were trying to lick their palms. Hearing the story is just not the same as getting the picture.
