A visit to Brooklyn’s Prospect Park Zoo is always fun. Their collection of animals grows each month. Check out the adorable baby golden lion tamarin born July 16th, to first time parents, Pablo and Teodora. Pablo, was born in 2004 and came to The Prospect Park Zoo from Zoo Atlanta. Teodora, was born at the Baton Rouge Zoo in 2008. Their pairing was a recommended breeding match through the national Species Survival Plan, a program that works to ensure the genetic diversity of endangered species in zoos and aquariums.
The red-eye tree frog was awake and energetic, as were the two tufted deer juveniles, meerkats, hornbills, stork, sea lions and more.
No doubt you have heard the story of the Central Park Zoo‘s little bundle of joy born during the weekend of Hurricane Irene. She has been named Irene Hope. Check out her cuteness:

The Central Park Zoo formally debuts its newest residents (and I think the cutest). Feast your eyes on the adorable Mountain Coatis named Lobo, Zev and Wolfie.

Yes, we drove three hours to see four month old snow leopard cubs and we were not disappointed. The Cape May County Park and Zoo is a delightful facility with over 200 acres of beautiful natural wooded areas and open spaces. And yes, it was worth our three hour drive to the tip of New Jersey to see the adorable cubs. If you want to see these photos larger go here.
Watch this little clip of Zoe, one of the Central Park Zoo’s snow leopards last winter in the first big snow.
