Model Lusy Logan poses for seductive pictures at the Wildlife Heritage Foundation's big cat sanctuary
Wearing a leopard-print halterneck dress - slashed to the hip - and matching shoes, she is photographed in various poses - and at one point strokes one of the animals. The 24-year-old, who is covered in dozens of tattoos from head to toe, describes herself as an "internationally published tattoo model and animal lover."

She said on YouTube: "This photoshoot was in aid of the decreasing number of big cats, the people trying to save them and my passion for these beautiful creatures. "Please donate, follow and support this sanctuary they do an amazing job!"
"Allowing close interactions between members of the public and dangerous wild animals is unethical, irresponsible and extremely dangerous..." - Liz Tyson, Captive Animals' Protection SocietyThe Wildlife Heritage Foundation (WHF) does not open to the public, but offers paid-for "experiences" with animals. CAPS director Liz Tyson said: "To find that the animals are now being rented out for photoshoots is shocking. "Allowing close interactions between members of the public and dangerous wild animals is unethical, irresponsible and extremely dangerous."
She added: "To call the continued use of animals in this way an accident waiting to happen is perhaps an understatement. We have numerous examples of people either deliberately or innocently coming into contact with wild animals with tragic results. It is time we all seriously question the keeping of these animals in captivity; not just for their sake, but for ours too."

WHF spokesman Tanith Brown said: "We do up-close experiences with our smaller cats so they are used to having close contact with people. "The animals aren't being rented out and we certainly wouldn't do anything to put them or the animals at risk." She added: "Lusy does a lot of good publicity to raise awareness and good conservation work. "All she did was stand and pose for photographs. I can't see anything negative about what she’s done. Our cats come first every time and we would never jeopardise their welfare."
