Just back from Canada and got some photos of wild Bears. But would love to do a safari and photo Cheetahs and Leopards in the wild.

Bengal tiger or Snow leopard......decisions, decisions. Probably go with the tiger. Or maybe a Narwhal?
So many things, so little time.
And even less money. Sigh.

That's not dreaming! There are plenty of them around the coast 
and frequently boat trips to see them. I can think of about 10 in this area alone (but Ireland does have a large amount of atlantic coast line!). Badgers would be harder I'd have thought?

For me to be serious is something you may not recognise, but the question is a difficult one to answer. Do I want to photograph a rare animal ? or an animal doing something it has discovery all by itself without human intervention?. Do I want to got to an exotic place to photo an animal in its natural surroundings perhaps.
AS I am totally impress with China, I think seeing a Giant Panda with young in its natural habitat would be the ultimate photo to take.
