Snow Leopard cub chaos at Melbourne Zoo!

The snow leopard cubs at Melbourne Zoo are growing bigger and more adventurous by the day. At eight months olds, the four cubs are leaping, sleeping, pouncing, wrestling and wreaking chaos in equal measure. Watch to see how much has changed since their first timid steps out onto habitat back in March this year. Snow leopards are one of the world's most elusive animals. They live in harsh mountain environments in India, China and Nepal, their thick, patterned fur coat helping them to blend into their rocky habitat. The cubs mark a continued effort by Zoos Victoria to help conserve the vulnerable species - there are less than 6000 snow leopards left in the wild. Zoos Victoria is a zoo-based conservation organisation, fighting for a future rich in wildlife. Learn more about our work at zoo.org.au Connect with us! 👇 📎   / zoosvictoria   🔗   / zoosvictoria
