South-east Asian fauna

thank you  Kosta and Pardofelis! :)

..yes, it's a fluffy toy from "Playklas collection" I bought few years ago, after Christmast for half its price, to shoot it in natural areas. It's my biggest tiger replica..  and was a little surprising for my kitty:

It's atonishingly realistic!

yes Pardo, few years ago, the same tiger, let (by a joker!) on a golf field close to London, frightened some people who called the police who demanded to all inhabitants of the district to stay inside until an helicopter was sent to shoot it with a soporific bullet. Then, the helicopter crew realised it was not a real one as it did'nt flee as they were approaching  and even rolled down on its side because of the rottor wind!

Very realistic. Don't get in trouble when you take it out in your car 

thank you Andreas and Roger! :)

Incredible I have no words

thank you Christophe! :)

I am just like Christophe! The piece is surprisingly realistic and huge!

Yes Rogério, that's why I couldn't resist!

meeting between 1 lonesome dhole (Cuon alpinus) and 2 grey wolves (Canis lupus pallipes) in Debrigarth wildlife sanctuary (India)

(all are customised dogs!)

..in this parc, a lonesome wolf has been observed turning around a pack of dholes maybe to be associated for hunting (see below), why not a reverse situation?.. some feral dogs have already been fimed hunting big prey with dholes!..

I find atonishing that a wolf associates with a pack of dholes! They're used to be terrible rivals and kill each other if they approach too much!

..when they lived in big packs but now, if they hunt together, they increase their opportunity to get big preys!.. don't forget they use the same communication system, dholes, like lycaons, are just more specialised "Canis" genus they come from!..

..the walking shadow.. (from Schleich and Papo)

I have always been fascinated by elusive and beautiful black panthers!..

I am discovering this thread and I absolutely love it ! I really prefer your outdoor pics with standard size figures over your inside dioramas with small ones.

I particularly loved the dragon story. The picture with the ranger looking at the boat far over the horizon is pure genius !

By the way, my uncle had the chitals, tigers and monkeys from that "very cheap singapore brand", what is it ?

Same here, the dragon story is great :) Your most recent photo of the black leopard looks really good and the trees with the roots look amazing.

Thank you Benjamin and Adam! :)

Benjamin, these cheap figurines are just marqued "Singapore" and I don't know any maker brand..

Nice again

Thank you Andreas! :)

cobra from Schleich, mongooses from.. Nayab?

Very nice, I am also curious to know the mangooses' brand.

Do you have any of these mongoose? as I would like to find one for my collection.

I just have these 3 ones, but if you want one Adam, I shall send you one when it will be possible again (but you'll have to remember me!)

Benjamin, they are just marqued "mongoose china" but I think they are from Nayab. I did'nt find them on T.A.W.

Poor cobra!
And these Egyptian mongooses are indeed a beautiful addition for any realistic collection :)
