Mary Ann, this tigers name is Mr. Saxon. I wonder if you could find out where he came from. He looks real familiar, I may have know his ancestor's.

Wade, I will do my best to find out for you, but it may not be easy. Up until two years ago, my interest in white tigers and champagne lions was limited to those in the United States and Canada, and it is only since then that I have gone global. LOL
Mary Ann
Wade, after looking around the internet, I do believe that you are messing with me. I did ask a foolish question of one of my colleagues though, so you can have your chuckle. LOL
Mary Ann
Mary Ann,
I am serious. That tiger is named Mr. Saxon and he is at the Belfast Zoo. You always asked what Tony looked like. This boy is a clone to Tony. I flinched when the photo downloaded. As Ari was left over in Germany in in 1992, I wondered if there was a connection. I am not fooling, see what you can find out. What foolish question did you ask?
Wade
Wade, I thought you were messing with us because the pictures you posted after this one were uploaded by a Mr. Saxon, so I thought ... oh never mind. You just gave me more information, so I may be able to help you. Give me a little time.
Mary Ann
Wade, you had previously told me that Tony's nephew Ramar looked like Tony, and I do see the resemblance between this tiger and Ramar. I don't believe that you ever posted the picture of Ramar in his pool.
Mary Ann
Mary Ann,
Maybe his name isn't Mr. Saxon. But it is surely a White Tiger.
Wade
Wade, his name is Jack, and he probably came from a circus. More information may be forthcoming.
Mary Ann
Mary Ann,
Thank you. Strange, as I was not aware of any White Tigers in a circus in Ireland?
Wade
Wade, this is all the information available on Jack. He arrived at the Belfast Zoo in 1998, and they think he was born in 1992, perhaps in America. He arrived with an orange female from the Chipperfield Organisation.
Mary Ann
Mary Ann,
That is very odd. Born in "perhaps" America. I wasn't aware that the anyone from the Chipperfield organization had white tigers in 1998. Possibly Clubb, but I am not sure of that. Maybe someone from Clubbs, or Jim Stockley can shed some light on what is indeed a mystery.
Thank you.
Wade
