A baby Pallas cat was born in the Helsinki Zoo, look at this tiny baby who bleps!

The Korkeasaari Zoo celebrated the birth of its first pallas cat and they gave the news on 10 august 2023 but the kitten in the photo is already 2 months old and she is healthy.

While the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) categorizes the Pallas cat as a species of "least concern," their numbers in the wild have been declining. These cats inhabit the vast and harsh grasslands and mountain steppes of Central Asia. Manuls are part of European zoos' conservation programs aimed at safeguarding their future. Korkeasaari Zoo contributes to the protection of wild manuls during this year's "Night of the Cats."

I heard y'all like baby deer, so let's put some more cute on your dash.

In this case, Cash, a Reeve's muntjac fawn at the Omaha Zoo. These photos are from last month, so he's a bit bigger now!

I think he was about three weeks old in these photos! He was still pretty tentative about leaving cover and shadowed his mom, Loretta, pretty closely.

(The zoo confirmed in a Facebook comment that yes, the whole family is named after country singers: Dad is named Willie Nelson.)

The blog post that announced his birth (the day before I got there!) stated erroneously that Reeve's muntjac is the smallest deer species. If you've been here for previous super-cute baby deer posts, you might remember that the winner of that superlative is actually the pudu, South American deer that are even tinier than these little guys.

Please enjoy this blooper reel where I have no idea what he and his mom were doing, but their faces are gold.
