中国首只人工喂养雪豹对外征集名字

The Tibetan Plateau Wildlife Park has asked the public to name China's first artificially bred snow leopard¹ to mark the first birthday of the cub².

 

为庆祝中国首只人工喂养雪豹幼仔的一岁生日，青藏高原野生动物公园正为它对外征集名字。
 

 

The existence of the zoo's 'little princess' has only just been revealed, as artificial breeding is only deemed successful after babies are at least six months old, according to Qi Xinzhang, deputy director of Wildlife Park.

 

Born on June 10, 2016, the female snow leopard is the offspring of an eight-year-old male 'Zhuangzhuang' and a ten-year-old female called 'Erbao'. 

 

Weighing 18.5 kg, the cub is said to be full of energy, walking and jumping up and down in the newly built snow leopard pavilion of the wildlife park.

 

The baby snow leopard's original 20 square meters 'small room' has been upgraded to 850 square meters 'presidential suite³' in the park to give the cub more space.

 

The wildlife park is hoping the new female will have her own offspring in two or three years' time, making a significant contribution to the wildlife park's breeding of snow leopards⁴.
