JAGU-AWW

This Valentine's Day is set to be purrfect for one loved up couple. Love is in the air at the jaguar enclosure at Dade City's Wild Things, an ecotourism zoo in Dade City, Florida. While jaguars are known to be solitary animals, Cassie and Luthor are inseparable. Cassie, with her tanned spotted coat, and Luthor, with his black coat, have been sweethearts for ten years and struggle to keep their golden brown eyes off each other.
