No credit given here, but this is a Robert Good photo, taken at the Clyde Beatty Jungle Zoo, in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. To honor his great friend of 40 years, Beatty ran this photo in his third and final book, FACING THE BIG CATS, and the cut line credits Good.

Roger: Bob Good didn't take the picture, even though his name appears in the book as Good's.

Maybe Mr Beatty just wanted to give his old pal a plug. Or mnybe he borrowed this copy of the picture from Bob. I know he already had copies of it as he (Beatty) gave me a copy of it several years before the book came out.
