A contentious subject I'm sure,but three cubs born for one of the worlds most endangered big cats made me feel good

It can be a contentious issue TB your right but sometimes to save a species captive breeding is a good thing.
These cubs are gorgeous......Snow leopards I believe, lovely thick fur they have on them I see. I bet they were a delight to watch.

I have to say unfortunate as it is, that in some cases like the Snow Leopard captive breeding is the only was to ensure the survival of the species. We have some at the Mountain Zoo Colwyn Bay near us. I think they are a fantastic animal

Seeing that would definitely make me feel good as well :)

Sadly I think it will be all too soon that the only place left that we will see Snow Leopards is in a zoo or similar. Beautiful animals I love you

Beautiful snow leopards but a shame they are in captivity.
