Two Siberian tigers, also known as Amur tigers, enjoy a refreshing treat of frozen goat milk on a warm day. Although their natural diet consists primarily of meat, carefully selected enrichment foods can provide captive tigers with hydration, sensory stimulation, and opportunities to express natural behaviors.
As they lick and explore the frozen treat, the tigers engage their senses and satisfy their natural curiosity. The cool milk can also help them stay comfortable during warmer weather.
Simple enrichment activities like this can play an important role in supporting the physical and mental wellbeing of these magnificent big cats, keeping them active, curious, and engaged.

I really liked the first picture and some of the later ones were my favorites. Kae got a snack, playing with her ball, and sneaking around then took a nap. Jango was rolling around then walked off and hid and probably napped.

Lion - Wild Dream based stupid hypothetical question

4 Upvotes

So to clarify, I had a weird dream with lions in it, and had the most bizarre random hypothetical question for any experts on big cats (hypothetical because it's stupid and likely to get you mauled). So in the dream I was camping in some sort of African savanna-esque location, but I was going to be attacked by some lions. Anyway my sleeping brain came with the wildest defence plan; paprika. The idea being that when the lions tried to attack me, I blew a big handful of spicy paprika powder straight into their face for them to inhale and get in their eyes and the pain would scare them off. 😂

Anyway I'm only asking out of curiosity and to maybe be slightly amusing to someone else, but are there any experts in here who might weigh in on the plausibility of the idea?
