Big cats in your local zoo.

Greetings all.

I'm doing a big cat database and I've already posted it in the UK forums but I'm seeing how much I can do, could you please post the name, birth date, birth place, parents etc of the big cats in your local zoo.

(The big cats I'm doing are leopards, jaguars, lions, tigers, cheetahs and panthers:D)

So please fire away!:)

Here we go.

Heya!

Actually Taiga is only the father of the most recently litter.

Yorgi was Mara, Petya, and the lost cub's father.
Globus was the father of Billy Ray.
Taiga is the father of Simsa, Nikita, and Max.

Beardsley Zoo has Amur Tigers.
Viktor: Male Amur Tiger born in 2004 at Beardsley Zoo. Parents are Robeki and Anastasia.

I would actually like to say that I am not exactly sure of Viktor's birthdate but it was either 2004 or 2005, most likely the latter.
In addition, a female Canada Lynx was sent to Franklin Park Zoo and a new approximately 1-year old male from Assiniboine Park Zoo has arrived.
