  • Jaguar Cubs Are Born at the Magnetic Hill
    September 5, 2019 For immediate release Magnetic Hill Zoo shares first precious photos of 2 baby jaguars born at Magnetic Hill Zoo on August 22 These are the first cubs (both males) for mother BJ and father Rio, born on the morning of August 22, 2019. Animal care staff at the Zoo always hope that any mammal born at the zoo receives the care required from mom. Sometimes, however, that is not the case and keepers must step in to assist. During their first veterinary check, it was obvious that one of the cubs was considerably smaller than the other. After a couple of days, animal care staff was concerned by his smaller size and lower growth curve. Staff began supplementing the smaller cub with some extra milk during weigh in time and immediately returning to mom and his brother. This process allows us to ensure proper behaviour development with mom and brother while ensuring a healthy growth. Zoo director Jill Marvin, said, “The cubs’ eyes are open, they are gaining weight and they are becoming steadier on their paws. The cubs first 30 days are still critical but we felt it important to share this exciting news and progress with our Moncton zoo supporters. We are very excited with the births of these two new additions and look forward to them being out for guests to see. However, it will not be for another couple weeks before they begin to venture out of their den and several weeks before they will be ready to venture to their outside exhibit for the visitors.” Female jaguars can have litters of one to four cubs, which are blind and helpless at birth.

It was so far away that there was no summer. It was so far away that the trees and the grasses did not grow as they should. He-Who-Made-the-Animals saw how it was that there was not enough sun to heat the earth, and so he fashioned a snare. The Sun did not see the snare in his path, walked into the snare and the snare held him fast. The sun was close to the earth.
