A young snow leopard (Panthera uncia) at the Toronto Zoo breaks the fourth wall (or at least looks through it) while stalking a small child.
It was remarkable to watch the snow leopard as the child darted in and out of view, not knowing she was being stalked. The cub went from happy, innocent-looking cat to switched-on, wide-eyed predator. These cats aren't tame, folks!

That's an awesome shot because it gives the perception that its hiding behind a rock in its natural environment, stalking something. And it is true that they aren't tame, even Zoo kept animals can be just as dangerous as they are in the Wild. -_- If only the people who assume they can tame these kinds of cats as pets would realize that instead of throwing the line out of "Well, I'm trying to preserve the species!"...Yeah, tell that to the dead animal in the cage after its mauled you to pieces. *end rant due to watching Animal Planet's "Fatal Attractions"*
I was volunteering at a big cat show at a fair once and I recall them telling people to keep their kids and pets a few feet away from the enclosures. A couple times the cats locked onto the sight of a child or two. Instant predator mode. It's funny to me when people say "aww look he's playing!" no, more like he wants to kill your kid, tear his guts out and have him for lunch.
I agree beautiful clarity! :3 snow leopards are so purry. I'm cuddling a plushie of one right now.
