Tulsa Zoo's New Snow Leopard Cub 'Niko' Thriving

They are jumping for joy at the Tulsa Zoo. Okay--it's too hot for too much jumping, but they're very excited about the birth of an endangered snow leopard.

Niko is thriving and loves to play with his stuffed armadillo.

Right now, Niko is at the Zoo Veterinary Hospital, where he's getting regular bottle feedings and plenty of play time. We got to go and have a look Wednesday.

The staff at the zoo says everyone will be able to see Niko soon, but the exact date depends on his growth and development.
