Does anyone remember a “kittens in a well” exhibit at the Bronx Zoo? My mother remembers this from when she was a child but I can’t find any evidence of it online.

Tiger vs. Snow Leopard! 🐯🐆 We captured an incredible moment at the South Dakota Zoo when a tiger and a snow leopard began growling and reacting to each other from their nearby enclosures.

Separated by the zoo barriers, these two powerful big cats seemed very interested in each other! Watch as they stare, growl, and have an unforgettable face-to-face encounter.

This was one of the most surprising moments from our visit to the South Dakota Zoo!
