    Always tricky. Try different techniques including healing brush, patch, and/or clone stamp.

    I did see a cool new feature in CS5 and Richard Harrington did a tutorial on it:

    That looks like magic and may help you as well, if you have CS5.

    Thank you the animal that is in the photo is in one of the cages they use when they catch it and I just want the photo of the Animal not the cage

    Understood. I would think the cage is distracting. Maybe I didn’t make myself clear. If you have CS5, then you treat the tiger as the background and let PS ‘fill in’ the background/tiger. Then you just delete the cage.

    OK but what if you just have CS4

    Then you have the healing brush, patch, and/or clone stamp tools. Not easy.
