…with all the cute baby animals. Apparently the clouded leopard adult pair at the zoo are kind of randy, and have produced another cub, born Friday afternoon. Like the first pair of cubs, this one will be hand-reared by Zoo staff to help with socialization. Which is good, because his big brother is pretty much demanding some belly-rubs.
You know, the pandas could take some lessons from a species actually interested in its own survival.
I can’t believe they put out a release about the leopard, horse, and red panda… and provided no photos of the red panda! I think they’re WAY cuter than the giant pandas and apparently they can actually figure out how to hump.
