Accompanying note: "These candid photos were taken of a youngster with a balloon in one hand, and literature in other that was handed out at the Miami Board of Realtors Home Show in Miami. In the small photo you will note he is moving over towards the oscelot, probably already noting the 'Don't Touch' signs. In the 8x10 photo he moves the balloon over close to the oscelot to see how he would re-act. Naturally the oscelot showed his teeth. The fox even turns to see the sausage shaped balloon."
