[Tamaki Ohkoshi, Reis Son]: "It's tiny small... tiny small. Some zoo visitors came especially to see the snow leopard cub. [Mitsuko Aoki, Zoo Visitor]: "I heard about the new born snow leopard cub a few days ago and took a day-off just to see the cute animal." Snow leopards have stocky bodies with short legs and stubby ears to minimize heat loss in the cold mountain ranges of Central Asia. Its short legs allow the snow leopard to leap as far as 46 feet from ambush. They also help to distribute the animals weight while walking on snow. When fully grown, Yukichi could weigh up to 120 pounds with a tail nearly the same length as his body. But for now, hes just a very cute cub. [Aiko Sasaki, Caretaker, Tama Zoo]: "Snow leopards' eyes are blue until four months after their birth before they turn to yellow. So, right now is the best time to see the charming blue eyes of the cub." Yukichi was named after one of the founders of modern Japan. The Yuki in its name also means snow in Japanese.
