This is a close up and very detailed portrait of a Clouded Leopard, who
resides in The Houston Zoo, Houston, Texas.
He and his female pal, Suksn, are about 15 months old, and enjoy the workers at
the zoo that are still able to enter their enclosure, holding, petting, and
giving them hugs! They are beautiful animals, once found throughout Texas,
but are sadly, rarely seen these days except in the continent of Southeast
Asia.
It is always such a pleasure to visit The Houston Zoo, and many of the other fine zoos in this wonderful country. My husband and I enjoy traveling, and visiting the zoos,capturing so many of them on camera. Each zoo, and every animal, is unique, which makes each visit such fun! The Houston Zoo has made so many improvements in the last few years, making sure each animal lives as close as possible to their natural environment, and diet. I enjoyed watching the Clouded Leopards in their enclosure,enjoying the staff who make daily visits so that these cats will feel comfortable in their new home,and easily mate when they are old enough, hopefully producing more of these beautiful and endangered cats to be enjoyed by future generations.
I can hardly wait to return and see how much Tarak and Suksn have grown! Please scroll down to see all of my posted work. I hope you've enjoyed seeing my work in stages, and the final piece. I love taking commissions.Please feel free to contact me about your custom piece, or any of my listed pieces for sell.
