Thank you in advance to everyone that comments and/or faves my picture. They are all immensely appreciated.
Ironically, these twin male snow leopards were born on the same day as the baby muskox (see previous pictures), but weren't "out" for the public to see until mid July.
Their names were voted on by the community from a choice of 5 possibilities and the winning names are Yuki and Kang......which both mean snow in Japanese and Tibetan.
I finally got a good look at them on a nice fall day, they were often inside their cooler housing during the summer.
(Quite a few touch-ups done.....the harsh light and shadows cast above their enclosure, along with the chain fence, made it challenging.)
“For me you are only a little boy just like a hundred thousand other little boys. And I have no need of you. And you have no need of me, either. For you I’m only a fox like a hundred thousand other foxes. But if you tame me we’ll need each other. You’ll be the only boy in the world for me and I’ll be the only fox in the world for you.”
excerpt from The Little Prince, by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry.

Il y a des animaux magnifiques au Zoo de Bâle que je n'aurais aucune chance de croiser dans les vergers qui m'entourent....
C'est triste qu'ils ne soient pas en liberté, je le conçois, mais ils intègrent aussi des programmes de survie des espèces dans les zoos.

There are magnificent animals in Zoo Basel I would have no chance to meet in the orchards around me ....
It's sad that they are not released, I conceive, they also incorporate species survival programs in zoos.
