Kincraig Wildlife Park

I visited the Kincraig Wildlife Park near Aviemore for the first time in 25 years last week. A great place to spend a few hours watching loads of different animals including Amur tigers, polar bears, Scottish wildcats and wolverines. It was difficult to get good clear pics through the mesh wire fences or glass viewing windows.
