Happy Halloween

One of the Siberian/Amur cubs at the Bronx Zoo. They sometimes give them enrichment items for play. In this case it was a pumpkin.

Beautiful Halloween image. My daughters just love this picture and can't wait to go see all the tiger and lion cubs at the zoo.

Thanks Gary. Go soon because the Malayan cubs won't be out in the cold weather, only the Amurs will be out during the colder months.

Hi Rachel. Thanks for that information. We are looking at next Sunday on our calendar. Has it been crowded or is the chilly weather discouraging some visitors?

[Rachel Hollander]

I was there last weekend and it was crowded because of the "Boo at the Zoo" activities going on. The crowd at the tiger cubs seems to ebb and flow depending on whether the cubs are playing or sleeping. IME if they're sleeping and you just wait 20 minutes and they'll start playing again.

Big cuteness factor here! My grandkids went a few weeks ago and loved the baby tigers. Grandpa (my husband) suckered for a stuffed tiger for our 6-year old granddaughter. I got the mini version that now sits next to my computer :D.

Thanks Harshad and Nancy. Nancy - I guess you did not go with them?
