Woburn Abbey

Today Matt and I drove out to the Safari Park at Woburn Abbey and saw lots of animals. It was a nice day out.
Although the stripes look black in the photo, the zebras looked more reddish brown in person.
Cattle or bison, originally from Africa.
Warning sign.
Siberian tiger prowling around his mate's cage. The other two males were patrolling the edge of the fence, keeping a close eye on the wolves in the next enclosure.
Canadian wolves and bears, pictured here, were kept in the same enclosure. This one seemed to be happy playing the bathing beauty for the crowd of watching cars.
The lioness was making a beeline for one of the adult males, who was isolated from the rest of the pride. One of the park rangers chased after it in her Range Rover, forcing the cat to return to the pride. We noticed the lions were under close surveillance. Not sure what was up. Security concerns? Possible plots?
MONKEY!!! One climbed on our car. Unfortunately, I was unable to get a clear shot.
Some very bored looking camels. to be honest, most of the safaris inmates looked like they could do with a dose of Prozac.
This rhinocerus was being a bit of a bully. He moved into the road and tried to block cars.
