this picture of young javan tigers was taken from zoologischer garten (zoological garden), Koln, Germany by the same photographer A. J. W. de Veer. The tiger from my previous post is the one on the left. they looks so very young wasnt they? just one year old maybe? 
It's interesting to note that they already posses longer hair around their cheeks. 

The photographer A. J. W. de Veer also  took a picture of and adult male javan tiger from the same zoo. probably the father of the two young tigers above.

now look at "his mane". seems like javan tiger able to grow very long hair cheeks if the live in the cold country.

hello @peter, yes its been a while my friend. just curious, you said "One of the few who was different is the one who wrote a book about the Javan tiger." what do you mean? please enlighten us
and btw  i don't know if this has been posted before but i also found two pictures of berberlowe (barbary lion isn't it?) from the same zoo.
