Ramil
San Diego Zoo - San Diego, California - Ramil the Snow Leopard was born at the Rosamond Gifford Zoo At Burnet Park in Syracuse, New York on 6/14/12 to Zena (Mom) and Senge (Dad). He moved to the San Diego Zoo in October 2014. His father still lives at the Rosamond Gifford Zoo. His mother passed away in the Spring 2016. Due to pain related to glaucoma, Ramil underwent surgery in February 2017 to remove his left eye, which gave him a renewed spring in his snowshoed step.
His brother/littermate, Bajen, lives at the Los Angeles Zoo in Los Angeles, California.
He also has a younger brother, Asa, who was born on 7/9/14 by C-section after an ultrasound revealed no heartbeat. He was born unresponsive, but veterinarians from Cornell University worked to revive him. Asa now lives at the Milwaukee County Zoo in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
