I went to the Cincinnati Zoo last week with my mom. We had alot of fun. My favorites to take pictures of are always the cats they have numerous different wild cats large and small ^_^ This one the Caracal is almost always laying in the same spot. Except for this one time this guy walked towards the glass and the Carcal got rather angry jumped down and started hissing and growling like mad o_o it was a scary sight. I didn't manage to get over there fast enough to get pictures of it that time. I thought might like this and I think he needs to have a chat with this caracal to get it to be less camera shy.

:P true that. gawd this is an amazing shot, it definitely raises thought for me about the domestication of the caracal as a housepet.

I can tell this particular cat becuase of a spot on his side near his head, this is my favorite in the cat house, everytime im there he comes to the window and sits infront of me. I feel for him, cooped in the cat house all day.

I have always loved these cats. They look so neat with those ear tufts. The only thing that I wish was different about them is their tails. The length just seems....wrong. But I can't image the tail any other way. It just seems a bit strange. This is a great photo. Rule of thirds....It's much more interesting cause the subject if off to the side instead of in the middle of the photo. :)
