These clouded leopard cubs have recently been born at Howletts Wild Animal Park near Canterbury. The two male and two female kittens were born in April and have recently made their first public appearance at the wildlife park. Clouded leopards are difficult to breed but the breeding program at Howletts has been quite successful with 30 births since 2003. The leopard is currently threatened with extinction in the wild due to the demand for it coat.

You news is great and the recent pictures from Borneo are reasons to be hopeful about its survival. In Oman we have the Arabian Leopard, with only about 200 animals in the wild its really an endangered animal. You can read about it through my blog
