The lion and the tiger ones are decent but a little too far away, but the bear shot steals the show! I like the way you made it fill the frame, and you've somehow captured the essence of power so often associated with these animals. White balance looks a little warm on all three, but nothing much to worry about or that you can't fix

EDIT: If you're looking for a more in depth comment, I just looked at the full size of the bear, and it looks like you focused on the nose rather than the eyes, which is fine for small sizes, but in print it will show. Either use a narrower aperture (I don't think this would work here), or try and get the eyes before all else!

Not sure I'd want to get any closer to that lot Jack! lol

Again as Jack say's a few little issues but as with your others really like the composition.
