PLAYFUL TIGERS GET UP TO MISCHIEF
SPLASHING in the water and fighting in-between rocks, these energetic tigers enjoy their fun-filled morning. The Indochinese tigers begin their day with mischief, after being showered and fed. The amazing pictures were captured by photographer and filmmaker Peter Adams at Tiger Temple, a Theravada Buddhist temple and sanctuary for wild animals in Kanchanaburi in western Thailand. ‘I spent a day visiting the temple as a normal tourist but I was able to get incredibly close to the tigers,” says 55-year-old Peter, of Gloucestershire.
