Always love shots like this with the rock scenery around the cubs.

Me too! This was one of my fav photos I took that day
I can't decide whether I like it better in b&w though =\ What do you think?

I just checked it and I prefer the colour one. I think Tiga looks cool in B&W, but the young cubs look better in colour. But that's just my opinion.

Tiga looks good in any style
Thanks! I think the B&W version is more dramatic looking, but the color version is more... I don't know, "lifelike"?

You're right, she always looks good. Anyways, I just uploaded 4 enrichment-related photos just for you. They are not the greatest, but it gives you an idea of what they've done the other day for them.
By the way, we're leaving right now. Somehow we've just decided to go see the babies again.
Plus the weather turned out better over the last 30 minutes or so.

It was awesome because the weather turned out good and the zoo was empty. Nobody near us at the snow leopards at all. All that rain and thunderstorms earlier scared everyone away.
Bad news... both of the cubs are really sick. One of them is worse then the other and had a hard time breathing the whole time. It had 'boogies' hanging down like 4-5 inches from it's nose. I hope they end up okay. The 2007 litter had a bad cold around this same age as well and they had to give them medicine every day.

That's so sad, I hope they get better soon

Me too. You could hear very clearly just how difficult of a time the one had breathing. It was choking and stuff a lot too.

omg that is sooo sad. I might have even gotten teary, curse my hormones!

I just hope they end up alright and hopefully one of the keepers went to check them out last night.
I just found out now that the lioness is due in 3-4 weeks.

They're going to make us wait 8 weeks after that to see them though won't they?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Hopefully not. I'm not sure if they keep the cub(s) in with the lions there for a few weeks or not, I really don't know. I do know that they use the baby lions for their shows there though. I'll write them again in 3 weeks and find out more at that time.

Then we will stalk them profusely until they let us see the cubs!
