Fat Cat

It's really painted, it's not a sticker.

Absolutely beautiful. Thanks for sharing Vera.

cool

Nice photo of an interesting combination. A Boeing in service in Russia painted with a jaguar that is a wild cat species native to the Americas, mainly South America.

Cool shot!

Impressive! Very neat for the kids to watch come into a gate!

Ok, that's awesome.

Nose Are extraordinaire' !!!

Nice kitty

Leon Kay, sorry, but it's not like that at all) This is an image of the Far Eastern Leopard, a specially protected animal, which has 70 animals left in the world. 10 of them live in China, the remaining 60 - in the Far East of Russia. There is a special organization that protects them - called "Leopard Land", this is their global promotion to attract attention to the endangered species.

Thank you all for the comments! I'm glad that you liked it!

Way Cool

I love it - a great way to make people aware of an endangered species. Perhaps more airlines should follow suit if they haven't already...

Six eyes with the pilots! Also, outstanding shot!!!

Nice pic.
Funny that they chose THIS particular breed of cat.
Do you know the reason behind their choice?

marylou anderson, yes, I know of course - I wrote above, this kind of cats on the verge of extinction. There are many reasons - from logging and forest fires and human advancement into the depths of the taiga (industrial development of the region) to poachers.
By the way, today is exactly one year, as the plane in this livery made its first flight. I was at this meeting, it was a flight Moscow - Vladivostok.

This is not the only environmental project involving this airline. The airline chooses the most difficult species in terms of conservation.

Another pain in the region is the Amur Tiger. He is also listed in the Red Book of the International Union for Conservation of Nature. This is the northernmost tiger.
His image is worn by another airplane of Rossiya Airlines - Boeing 747 (reg. EI-XLD)

Thank you all for your attention to this photo and for your sympathy for the Far Eastern leopard)

Awesome. Thanks for getting a great shot of this.
