Cougar Photographs at Wild Eyes Animal Adventures

Ginger was the first large animal I got to photograph at Wild Eyes.  She is a beautiful 2 year old cougar.  The trainers bribe her with ground chicken to get her into position.  They also used a orange jug on a rope which she chased enthusiastically.  After the shoot I ask if I can pet her. The trainers say yes but Ginger doesn't agree.  She growls at me as I approach.  The trainer thinks it is all my photo gear, so I shed my vest and all my other gear and give it another try.  This time Ginger has no objection.
