A 17-pound snow leopard, born earlier this year at New York's Bronx Zoo and the first offspring of an orphaned snow leopard from Pakistan, is now on display. According to sources, the cub, still unnamed, is the offspring of Leo, who was brought to the zoo after his mother and siblings were killed in Pakistan in 2005. The cub was born on April 9 but was kept out of view as the zoo officials wanted to ensure that he was healthy and well-adjusted before officially putting him on display. United States Ambassador to Pakistan Richard G Olson issued a statement saying, While Leo is on loan to the Bronx Zoo, we hope that his presence in the US and the ongoing bilateral cooperation on conservation efforts will help deepen the links between the people of Pakistan and the US.
