Hellem,
thank you for the added information.

The three are so sweet and cute.
Now each of them has a weight like a newborn human baby.

Aren't they cute?

They are so cute, the leopard cubs. Last month I visited Tallinn Zoo but the leopards were not outside so I did not see them.
The polar bear cub was outside with mother. Unfortunately they have to live in an old and small cage with a very small swimming pool. I wish they had more space. The Zoo itself is in a huge green area with lawns and forests and I had to walk quite long distances to see the animals.
Mother polar bear was playing with a car tyre in the water while the (obviously nameless) baby bear was standing there and trying to take a ball out of the water but did not manage to catch it. So the small bear was getting very impatient and angry and started crying in a loud voice while mother was sitting in the water with the tyre around her neck. Baby bear was afraid of the water and did not jump into the pool, just running and surrounding the pool and he/she sometimes grabbed mother's throat to tease her but mother was very patient.

The polar bear (girl) is called "Nora" and they will get a better and bigger place, it's a financial question as well!

Two Amur Leopards were born at Mulhouse Zoo on 29th March. Both are healthy & this time the mother did not reject them but took great care of both. ( it sems each time the mother gives birth to a single cub she will ignore it,so it has to be reared by the keepers )
Photographs in our local paper showed the young cubs being presented to the public.
The cubs are both female.
They will be on view now most afternoons to the Zoo visitors as the weather is good. (too good for some 33° )

why it is worth?

[Riitta]

venegor, thanks for the nice pictures.

[Cessie]

Venegor, thank you for the snowman pic!!
I confess that I watch the Amur Leopards twice a day online!! I fell in love after finding this forum with the link to the webcam shortly after the Cubs were born. :
Now I find they changed the web page of the Tallinn Zoo and I can't get the cameras up
If you, Venegor, or anyone can please help me with a new link I would so appreciate it.
I am missing Darla and her 3 babies.
Thank you, Cessie

Juta Thank you, Thank you!!

I was so lost with the new website for the Zoo. The cameras would not come on for me.
Juta, I admire your country, Estonia, so much! I hope to one day visit, especially the Tallinn Zoo and the Amur Leopards!! Their enclosure and care is the best I have ever seen. I really am not fond of animals held captive or zoo's. But here I am so happy for these beautiful leopards.
Many regards, Cessie

sorry snowman

[Cessie]

Venegor, hahahaha! I just saw that on the cam! I had been waiting for this to happen!
I am sad that the link for the Leopard cams went away. I suppose the host is not sponsoring the cams anymore,(I've alreay forgotten their name Inter? Something). But that was the link that worked on my iPhone and iPads! cry: But at least I can watch on the laptop one cam full screen!
Thank you for posting this pic. The kids are so much fun to watch.
