A Tigress playfully stalks a male tiger, on a rainy wet day at Banham Zoo, Norfolk. UK EXCITING images of a tigress running dramatically through water prove that even captive animals can feel the eye of the tiger. These Siberian tigers of Banham Zoo, Norfolk were moved to the UK as part of the European Breeding Programme intended to protect endangered animals from extinction. Siberian tigers are the largest and heaviest of the world?s big cats. Adult males can weigh up to 418 pounds and reach seven feet in length. They are one of nine subspecies of tigers ? three of which are now extinct. Banham Zoological Gardens, or Banham Zoo as it was originally called, was opened with a collection of pheasants and parrots by local Norfolk resident Martin Goymour in 1968. This 50-acre zoo in Norfolk and is now home to more than 2, 000 animals. British wildlife photographer Talvinder Chohan (40) took these images with his trusted Canon EOS R5 camera. ?It was a very dark, cloudy and rainy day, but this seemed to invigorate the tigers, ? he said. ?I could see the tigress playfully stalking the male whilst taking a dip in the water, and I could sense she was going to charge at him. ?I only had split seconds to dial in the correct settings and get my 800mm lens in place, but I managed to get the shots. ?I love showing the power, majesty and athleticism of the tiger, but also the playfulness they can exhibit.?
