Peggy and Kittensby *DeeOtter

Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Wild Animals

Peggy and two of three kittens.
The kittens were just release to go outside for one of their first times around when this was taken. They're much bigger now, almost the size of their mother. They'll stay with her for a year until they strike out to find new homes. (Or the zoo will find new homes). No idea what N.A. zoos keep caracals. I've seen servals at a few.

Entered this into the AZA magazine Connect contest and got another honorable mention. This time in a full page spread.

I think Kenai will be entered next year if I'm still volunteering.

Thank you very much!
I miss these little guys. The kittens have all grown up and moved out to other zoos. Mom & Dad are still around and may have kittens again in the future.
