This morning, two Amur Leopards were born at Tallinn Zoo.

I watched for a few minutes - Mother seems very tired and reluctant to move around much.
Please can someone translate some of the important parts of the text, to help us.
I worked out that pressing FS would give me Full Screen, and it did, and there could be much more that would be useful to know, but it's in Estonian!

Thanks to Juta for bringing this link here.

Better still - here is an English page!

And this Leopard Darla was born in Berlin Zoo 6 years ago.
Arrived in Tallinn Zoo in year 2005. Have had 3 cubes which are now sent to other places, one in Marwel Zoo, UK and one somewhere in USA. I have to search a little.

I have just seen a report on our t.v. news channel( i Telé) of the birth of the two little Leopard d'Amour.. and they had sound.!! :rolleyes:
First-born sound reminded me of the birth of a baby panda...very vocal little thing.

New article: http://www.ohtuleht.ee/ilm/artikkel/373477

According to Tallinn Zoo director Mati Kaal Darla hasn´t eaten and drunk since cubes were born on Monday.
They will be observed after two weeks, until that Zoo workers watch them as we all only through the webcam.
Visitors will see them after 2 month, when they will be vaccinated.
Darla´s previous cubes:
Kaia - Great Britain
Edgar - USA
Toomas - Finland

Oh, so the one down the road from me is Kaia? Great. :loveshower:

But it is worrying that she has not had food or drink for so long.
I suppose she is still producing milk for the cubs, or they would be restless.

I understood that this is normal for many animals.
