Bruno and Padmini

This is only a very quick introduction to two of the most beloved tigers at WHF. I've been run off my feet recently with my work at WHF and starting a new job besides the voluntary bits. I will be adding to this as I can! 

Sleepy Bruno

Bruno and Padmini (affectionately known as Pads) are two of the eldest residents at WHF, and well into their retirement. Bruno was born into a circus life and was fortunately rescued when he was still young, so didn't have to perform in one. As such, he is an unknown sub-species (hybrid) and was and could never have been bred from as part of the conservation effort. His companion Pads is a Bengal tiger, and the only Bengal at WHF.  

Padmini

Bruno is well known amongst staff and visitors alike for his party trick... if Bruno is around stay well behind the splash zone! Boys will be boys and if he takes a liking to you, then you can be sure to be sprayed. Not the nicest present to be given let me assure you. 

Pads on the other hand is a lovely old lady who unfortunately is beginning to feel her age. She can still stick up for herself, but needs some time away from Bruno - especially at meal times.
