PP post this morning with the story of the three tiny leopard cubs rescued from the floods in kien svay-WTF?
No explanation of where they could of come from and whether their mum was a pet or in the wild.
There couldnt be wild leopards in kien svay,could there?
Anyway, one has died already and the other two are being taken home at night for three hour feeds by a zoo employee-good luck leopards.
I remember raising kittens from a few days old and feeding them with a dolls bottle every few hours.I gave them to friends later and they turned out to be fantastic cats.

Maybe they escaped from wildlife smugglers? I can't imagine how else they'd get to Kandal province. I remember raising a marmoset with a bottle, he had a wood and fur substitute mother he'd cling to. It took a couple of weeks of getting up every couple of hours, but unfortunately the thermostat broke in his incubator and he got cooked.

Wild, indigenous leopards were caught on film crossing camera traps set up by the WWF back in 2007.
