| Omaste's cubhood has been the stuff of legend, having earned
her the distinction of being one of the toughest little tigers around.
Her demeanor around the people she knew paled in comparison to her attitude
to those she didn't, earning her the nickname of 'O-monster'. She now
resides with Icamna and Honey in a remote section of the compound.
She's pleasant with the staff she's gotten to know over the years, but if
there are any visitors in sight, then the 'O-monster' returns!

| Magic Moments:
"At a public education event, Omaste was relaxing on the other side of the
arena when a group of people came up. They had just started to talk
amongst themselves when Omaste charged fifteen feet across the arena,
roaring and snarling at them. She was not even a year old at the time,
and I remember thinking 'wow, what a tiger'."
