Yooo Harbinger you hang out with giant cats? That's really cool. Is it with a humane society type thing or a zoo or...? (I ask because I love cats)

Some of it is by voluntary efforts, others is just knowing the right people who have the access or the facility, some of it is simply a zoo or menagerie, @Darcs. In this case, the lynx compound was a private rescue and breeding site, but the large site was an exotic-big cat breeding facility, specifically the Mojave site.

From one desert to another, all on business, but there's ample time and reason to visit any place of feline importance. I went to California previously just for the expressed reason of going on effective pilgrimage to La Brea.

@The Harbinger of Ferocity I don't know why but I always doubted you were in the USA.

I make my rounds, @Carantathraiel, but I will never spoil where my true haunt is, only allowing the mystery at hand to continue. I should also have those pictures here by this evening, but who knows the quality? We will see if any are even workable. I am certainly no photographer.

@The Harbinger of Ferocity I understand that completely. I don't like many people knowing things about me.
Well, I used to, then a thing happened and someone betrayed my trust, now I guard myself a lot more.

I was never fond of giving away any hard information about me, be it by always being on the move, using misinformation or merely never saying to begin with.

Sadly, this is the only photo that turned out "decent", as the images of the others are fairly washed out or are obscured more heavily by the enclosure fence, @Carantathraiel. Worse yet, it is not even that great a picture itself.

They are a lot better in person, that much I admit. The picture does no justice, but that cat in particular is young enough to not yet be indifferent and desensitized to humans. The older male could care less, whereas this one had a fair amount to say about the group of people, made forty, that interrupted our conversation.

I wonder where to find myself to next? At least now I have a reason to actually take pictures with the intentions of showing them to anyone, @Carantathraiel.

Other than this, what have you found yourself up to?

Certainly appropriate, as I have seen other videos with this individual and their cats. They are always entertaining, the interactions within them.

Is he a popular internet persona? I wasn't aware. :>
Maybe that will be you one day?

I am unsure how well known the handler is overall, but he has enough of a record as does his organization for me to know who he is. Usually I just see people complaining on it like every YouTube video that it is "inhumane to the animals for them to be in cages" and that "they're not treating the animal right" or "they should be left in the wild" without so much as providing even cursory thought about the practicality of such statements in the age we find ourselves in and these particular animals. I have never had an issue with him - all of his cats seem to adore him and interact directly with him, which is impressive for all the reasons one can conjure.

As for having such an honor? That is one of several!

That was wonderfully informative
Big cats are such lovely creatures. I appreciate their existence a hell of a lot <3
