Our black beauty surprised look: one eye on us, the other on him. Then he started licking cupcake as a cub, well, and later fell in love. That day now expects the addition, - says Sergey. - In our zoo atmosphere of love. Cougars, Far Eastern leopards and jaguars live together in pairs. I have never met such other zoos ».

Head of the Department of mammals displays a log, which he placed in the cage of a lion, so he sharpened claws. Predator was quickly ripped from the fasteners and is now rolling on the floor.
"Of course, a couple would be our Caesar, but has nowhere to go, no places in the zoo. For this reason, we have a lone tiger and bear. Unless relocation and make a real animal park, in Novosibirsk. Then, perhaps, my dream has come true would be: have started the polar bears, and more would have made a rustic patio with dwarf animals ", - says Sergey.
