For #TongueOutTuesday, a tiger performing flehmen. This grimace draws air over the Jacobson's organ in the roof of the mouth, used for analysing scent. #tigers #cats #mammals #animals #wildlife

For #FelidFriday this week, the first lions I ever saw in the wild! I know this isn't a very good photo - I had a crappy camera at the time (this was so long ago it was taken on ACTUAL FILM!), and I was also losing my mind with excitement ... #lions #cats #mammals #animals #wildlife

Happy #ValentinesDay and #WolfWednesday, everyone! Did you know that wolves mate for life? They are very loving animals in general - devoted to their families, caring for their weak and sick, and mourning deaths. #wolves #canids #mammals #animals #wildlife

Pallas's cat, also called the manul. It's native to the steppes of Asia - you can see the thick fur it has to keep warm. #FelidFriday #cats #felids #mammls #animals #wildlife
