When Nel visited the Rotterdam Zoo she found Wolodja looking like a Loch Ness monster. She suspected Wolli was rehearsing for a play about the famous creature in Scotland. 🙂
Oh bear, how can I take off this ‘costume’?
I try to shake it off ….
… well, I look gorgeous even with the face decoration! 🙂
Lady Karuna had a feathered fan.
The magpie certainly has a nerve to bother this nice lady! Although Karuna doesn’t seem to mind. 🙂
Info from the Rotterdam Zoo: Take a look from the Savannah Bridge into the hyena’s nest; you will see two dark brown pups. About two months ago Kaidi gave birth; the sexes are still unknown. It is not uncommon for hyenas to have twins. They are currently doing well, but the cubs are very fierce towards each other. At birth, they already have razor-sharp teeth and the strongest cub is in charge.
The pups stay in the den and sometimes walk a very short distance behind their mother. Father Karoi does not interfere in their upbringing and stays at an appropriate distance. When will you come for a maternity visit?
