Endangered Clouded Leopard Kitten Cries

An endangered clouded leopard kitten born earlier this month at Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo is doing well at 2 weeks old, according to new footage provided by the zoo on March 25. The kitten has grown from 300 grams at birth to 810 grams as of March 25. He has started to crawl and scoot using his front legs.

The male kitten is the first to be born to the zoo’s clouded leopard’s Yim and Malee, who will turn 4 years old this week. The mates were brought to the zoo at 6 months old under the Association of Zoos and Aquariums’ Clouded Leopard Species Survival Plan. Credit: Tampa’s Lowry Park Zoo
