Rainforest Cafe is a themed restaurant chain. The first location opened in the Mall of America in Minnesota, USA on February 3, 1994.

Each Rainforest Cafe restaurant is designed to depict some features of a tropical rainforest, including plant growth, mist, waterfalls and figures of rainforest animals. Some of the animals are animatronic and start making animals noises and move.  My favorite part of these restaurants is when there is a 'rain storm' inside.  All the lights dim and there is 'lightning' and then it starts to rain inside the restaurant.  Not on the customers, only in parts by the walls. But it is very fun.  Our family loved to eat here when we visited Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida.

Tigers 'Coaster' Postcard

We owe it all to Dr. Ruth.  (an American sex therapist and author)

It is laminated on both sides, and the back has a sticker on it with the 'Send to:' where you put the address, and a place to put the stamp.  Then on the bottom it reads: 'Peel off the label to use card as a coaster'

Maybe it's just me, but this is too cute to put a drink on!

Lion Country Safari

#8567 Tiger (Panthera tigris)

The tiger is a solitary animal with a clearly marked territory which may extend up to 400 square miles.  It is very agile and swims well.  Tigers hunt at night, lying in ambush for a wide variety of prey including deer, buffalo, goats, and small mammals.

Lion Country Safari is a drive-through safari park located in Loxahatchee (near West Palm Beach), in Palm Beach County, Florida. Founded in 1967, it claims to be the first 'cageless zoo' in the United States.
In 2009, USA Travel Guide named Lion Country the 3rd best zoo in the nation.

White Tiger from Lion Country Safari, Florida

#11993 White Bengal Tiger (Panthera tigris)

The white tiger once inhabited the north and east of central India but was prized for its unique coat and hunted to near extinction.  Today the white Bengal tiger is bred only in zoos.  All tigers require an environment of dense forest and wild hoofed animals that make the bulk of their diet.  Unfortunately, most of their original range has been destroyed and all tigers are considered endangered.

1. Tigers are the largest naturally occurring specie of cats.

2. Of tiger subspecies, the Siberian Tiger is the biggest cat that can weigh well up to eight hundred pounds.

3. Tigers are very beautiful and their striped coat makes for ideal camouflage.

4. A tiger's stripes are like fingerprints - no two are alike. In fact the stripes' pattern is often used to identify individual tigers in the wild.

5. Tigers are highly ferocious and unlike the laid back male lion, it's never wise to turn your back to a tiger even in captivity. Even seasoned zoo keepers report tigers assume a stalking position and prepare to strike when they turn their back to them in the cage.

Clemson Universtiy, Origin of the Tiger Paw


Origin of the Clemson Tiger Paw
Clemson University, South Carolina

Efforts to upgrade the image of the university in 1970 resulted in the assistance of Greeville's Henderson Advertising Agency.  The agency designed the paw print, an actual cast from the foot of a tiger.  The symbol of Clemson University spread like wildfire and is now reproduced on every material imaginable.  Schools and universities throughout the country have now copied this success.
