Rare snow leopard cubs debut at Bronx Zoo

The cubs, one male and one female, were born this summer to mother, Dariga, and father, Naltar.

Snow leopards, classified as "vulnerable” by the International Union of Conservation of Nature (IUCN), are rarely seen in the wild.

The Bronx Zoo has had 80 snow leopard births, more than any other zoo in North America, and was the first zoo in the United States to exhibit the big cats in 1903.
