Artist's Comments

This snow leopard cub in the Toronto Zoo was born this past summer, and I wanted to get a shot of him/her in nice fresh snow. I hadn't planned on being there that day, but my connecting flight back to Kingston on my way home from San Francisco was canceled, due to the huge dumping of snow.
My time at the zoo almost made up for being back in the rotten winter after a lovely week in Cali. (and a great week in AZ prior to that)
Enjoy.

Thank you kindly! They were really super co-operative that day!

It's all in fun until someone loses an eye. Then it gets really interesting.

I'm pretty sure he was!

I was the only one there that day, and they kept coming up to the glass at the front observation window and putting their paws up on it...until I'd put my mitt up and they'd get all happy and do a little snow dance...I think their usual keeper hadn't been it that day due to the snow.

Hi Liza,

You've got a nice gallery going on there!

I've never been to the San Francisco Zoo, but next time I visit I must make a point of going.

Keep on being awesome.

Best Regards
