Asiatic Black Bear Tan Takes a Nap...

Tan the Asiatic Black Bear, aside from when he's eating, is happiest when he's sleeping. He loves nothing better than climbing up his tower and surveying his enclosure before falling fast asleep, usually in the most ungainly positions. This gentle giant is a firm favourite at WFFT - possibly because he spend so much time dozing that he's very easy to take photographs of!

The Leopard Cat Kitten

Leopard Cats are a small type of feline weighing between 3 and 5 kg. This particular kitten is one of a pair born a few months ago at the Wildlife Rescue Centre, when their rescued mother surprised us all by giving birth one night. Leopard Cats are very shy, and when first rescued the mother showed no signs of being pregnant. The kittens are now starting to explore their surroundings more, although they still spend a great deal of time snoozing in their baskets.

Bua Ngun Relaxes

Bua Ngun is a much loved elephant at the Elephant Refuge & Education Centre, and is WFFT's oldest resident. After 65 years of back-breaking labour, this gentle old lady now lives peacefully at WFFT and enjoys daily showers, eating lots of food and giving herself dustbaths.

Miaew the Tiger

Rescued as a young tiger from a petrol station, where he was used as a tourist attraction, poorly treated and where he developed problems with his central nervous system, Miaew is now approaching 10 years old! Despite his disabilities - he has a very ungainly walk due to damage to his spinal nerves - he is a very happy tiger, and has over 7000 square meters of enclosure to prowl around in. He spends a lot of time snoozing in the shade under trees and cooling off in his pool, and can choose whether he wants to come and see people, or disappear into the undergrowth for some privacy.
