This image was taken in Croatia, Zagreb.
The title says all what I think of the situation in the world concerning animals,well all the living things on earth, doesn't matter which species.
Just to let you know, image was taken in the moment. The lion was sleeping all the time, as they do, then the little girl started scratching the glass. The lion woke up saw the girl and started doing the same thing, imitating here.
I was on the other side and a friend called out, hey look at this, I ran to take a photo. I was standing behind the girl with a telephoto lens, adjusted the settings on the fly and just started shoot burst photos :)

Awesome shot.
What I loved in the pic, is how the kitty has raised its paw in connection with the girl. As if there is a mental bond between those two.. Love this pic.

I AGREE! Unfortunately a lot of so called 'humans' forget that we ARE ONE after all! And we should preserve them! They are so vulnerable!

This really moves me. I hate to see animals cages, and this one depicts that if we truly are one, no one and nothing should be caged. It truly brings tears to my eyes.

Love the way you can tell how powerful the cat is by the size of his paws compare to the Childs great image

I really do hate taking photographs taken through the protective glass and fences at Zoos.. This however, is entirely different!
