Fishing cat, Mississippi Alligator, new Bic pen Zoo studies

I`m visiting our Munich zoo as regularly as I can, and though it`s always risky to make studies from alive animals, the fascination of being there, gives me the confidence to try my best despite any possible failure. In most of the cases when I`m returning back home with succesful studies like these ,the satisfaction I feel can`t be compared with any other reward.
