Opis:
Male snow leopard, Yashin, has fathered the cub at Chester Zoo after arriving last year as past of the endangered species breeding programme The cub is the first of its kind to be born at the zoo in its 94-year history.After arriving to first-time parents Nubra (3) and Yashin (3) on Tuesday 10 June 2025, mum and cub have since spent time quietly tucked away in a cosy den - with all of their adorable early moments caught on the zoo's ‘den cams'.Carnivore experts at the zoo say Nubra is showing "excellent maternal instincts” by nursing her new arrival every few hours and always keeping close by - only leaving the den momentarily to feed.Now, at six-weeks-old, the cub has gained in strength and confidence and could start to venture outside at "any moment.”, Credit:Chester Zoo / Avalon
