Wild Cats World - Babette de Jonge Babette de Jonge is born (and still living) in Bussum, in the heart of Netherlands, on June 24th 1967. For years her big passion in life is travelling Africa and India to see her other big passion, the big and small wild cats, in their natural habitat. A third passion to make this all complete is photography. Wild cats and other wildlife in particular. What started as a hobby turned out to become more of a profession. Babette did a lot of things during the years besides travelling (and organising special photo safaris) and photography, like working with and for wild cats in sanctuaries and with foundations working for the endangered wild cats, like the cheetah and tiger. She writes articles for some magazines and websites and is working on a book about the Indian caracal together with wildlife biologist (and wild cats expert) Shekhar Kolipaka from India. In 2006 Babette started the webmagazine www.wildcatsmagazine.nl which turned out to be a big success. Due to a report for this website Babette got to know Eva Julia Christiie and they became close friends. Together they will now join forces and knowledge/experience to make the new project Wild Cats World a huge success! Also see Wild Cats World.
