Hello:

I was just checking out the photos on your slideshow. The one labeled "MiamiLionMangyLionCub.jpg was photographed at Catty Shack by Darcy Bateman around the middle of 2000. It's a tiger cub, hairless from ringworm at the hands of Curt Logiudice. There were 3 cubs in the litter; one died from starvation. The other two were seized by a rescue group. The female that was taken seizured the next day and nearly died, and lasted about a year before succumbing to metabolic bone disease. The male in the photo is still alive and doing well, although its bone structure is narrow.

Please change the caption to read "Ringworm-infested tiger cub, Catty Shack Ranch, Jacksonville, Florida."

By the way, the cub is about 7 months old in the photo and weighed about 35 lbs.

Thank you.
