Jaguar / Krefeld Zoo

Jaguar / Krefeld Zoo

On 17 May, this little Jaguar cub came into the world, born to Krefeld Zoo‘s breeding pair Bess and Porgy. This is the second offspring for the parents in their time at the zoo. It was a difficult birth, but mother and cub got to do the necessary bonding for the first week of his life. At that juncture, Bess suffered from an inflammation of the uterus, and had to be treated under general anaesthesia for the condition. Fortunately, she made a full recovery, reunited with her cub, and has been doing a great job of caring for her baby ever since — via ZooBorns
