Teatime in the lion pen.


April 8th 2008. Blackpool Zoo. Lioness tucking into a whole uncooked chicken. On previous visits we have seen them throw in large jumps of raw meat for feeding to the lions, however (and this is the strange bit) we have never seen them feed the tigers. 
I think they feed them after the zoo has closed and the public has left. Probably because tigers want something a bit larger than a chicken and also prefer it to be on the fresher side of just dead.....
