Roberta,
Tigershark's post is a little blue box with a question mark on my screen until I refresh the page. Then I can see the photo.

Tigershark, Thanks. Big smile. I didn't know that there was interspecies communication. Amazing. Heartwarming and not weepifying.

alex, Beautiful face. Is it some kind of weasel?

Hi c.i., Your travels always yield interesting and exotice shots. Thanks for the camels.

rosborne, Forgive me for being a tad cynical. But I'm having a hard time believing that a zebra climbed a giraffe. However, the shot of the tiger is a doozy. Thanks.

Unless that Tiger was chasing him Wink

On the other hand, maybe the Giraffe just bent down and gave him a boost so he could get a better look around. Wink

In the first scenario, I've gone from cynic to skeptic. What the hell is a tiger doing in Africa? Or what the hell are a zebra and giraffe doing in India (or Siberia)?

I prefer the scenario. Interspecies cooperation. Warms the cockles of my heart.

Maybe they're all living in Bush Gardens in Tampa Bay.

Or maybe it's the PhotoShop scenario Smile

mesquite, In a woid, eewwwwwww. These creep me out big time.

rosborne, Aw shucks. Thanks, kid.

Just watched a show on Discovery about dolphins. Learned that their locomotion takes less energy than any other animal. Also learned that they do things and move in ways that scientists say are impossible. I guess somebody forgot to tell the dolphins.
