For just the second time in its history snow leopard cubs have been born at the Akron Zoo. One male and one female cub were born on April 14, 2014. The cubs are currently off exhibit and indoors in a cubbing area with their mother, Shanti. Snow leopards are an endangered species and are part of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) Species Survival Plan (SSP). A naming contest will be announced in a few weeks.
