Photos from National Geographic

A couple of cool photos from National Geographic that I wanted to share:

A baby black jaguar paws at the camera at the Huachipa Zoo. The cub, whose species is native to Central and South America, is only the third jaguar born in captivity in Peru.

A supercell—the strongest and most severe type of thunderstorm—lights up the sky over Amarillo. The supercell would eventually form a tornadic vortex signature, signaling a high probability of forming dangerous twisters. The supercell was part of a line of storms that dumped torrential rain and large hail in parts of west Texas, but no major damage or injuries were reported.

The Jaguar is so cute. In the picture, he doesn't quite look like a cat,yet. When I first looked at the picture, I wasn't sure what kind of animal it was. Enjoy your weekend.....Cindi

Awesome picture of the black Jaguar. I confess, I'm a big cat lover even when they are small.
