first/ last look better in bw
3rd and 4th  is imo to sharp for a bw in that distance, the colour one is my fav and a great shot
anyhow the tiger looks a bit like a zebra in bw, so it was a dangerous life before inventing colour photography

I agree with all the votes for no.3. Love the dark background and the intensity.

Excellent!
