This show of affection between Mikey and sister Saja was only after Saja bit Mikey in retaliation for biting her tail. There were three trainers in the cage with me, even at that when Saja jumped up to get Mikey I was a bit nervous. I was amazed at how quickly she moved.









Their play, as you can imagine, is very rough. Saja and Mikey got a slight discipline from the trainer at the right. They trim their nails but not their teeth so there are scars from the play. At 13 months they weigh about 300-350 lbs. at sexual maturity of three years the males go about 550-600 and the females 500-550. It was an amazing experience for me and most rewarding.
