A 370lb Golden Bengal Tiger bows its head and placed a paw up to the hand of a small girl.
Photographer Dyrk Daniels says:
"I noticed this little girl was leaning against the glass with both hands out stretched staring at the 'big kitties'.
I could not believe my eyes when Taj approached the girl,
bowed his head and then placed his huge right paw exactly in front of where the little girl's left hand was.
It was incredible to watch.
Taj let down his right paw,
rubbed his cheek against the glass where the little girl's face was
and moved off."
Far from being scared,
the little girl was so excited that she started clapping
as she walked back towards her mother.
