This is a video of one year old tigers, Almos and Taj, filmed at the Cougar Mountain Zoo in Issaquah, Washington, shot at 300 fps with a Casio EX-F1 Exilim Pro camera set to hip hop music. It was shot on May 3, 2008, during the birthday celebration for Almos. For this occasion, visitors were allowed into an area within a foot or two of the tigers, separated by glass.

By observing a tiger in slo-mo, it is possible to see behaviors and movements not visible to the naked eye. It opens up an interesting new world of wildlife.
