Leopard Cat Kitten and Other Babies Growing Fast!

Hand Reared Leopard Cat Kitten

During the first quarter of 2016, 31 animals were either born or hatched at PTWRC included four sambar deer, three muntjac deer, one silvered langur, one gaur, one pileated gibbon, two fruit bats and two common palm civets.There is also a constant stream of baby animals arriving at our Nursery, with many baby birds including parakeets, Oriental pied hornbills and four black kite chicks, now fledged, arriving during the past three months. A female sambar fawn has joined the young male at the Nursery.

Two very young leopard cat kittens were rescued from the illegal wildlife trade by the Wildlife Rapid Rescue Team (WRRT) and were taken to Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Center (PTWRC) for care.  Unfortunately, one of the kittens was just too small and weak and could not survive.  The other kitten, however, is doing very well being hand raised and bottle-fed.  When Nick Marx, Wildlife Alliance's Wildlife Programs Director, visited the kitten, he thought the cat might be ready to start weaning off milk.  He offered the kitten a small piece of chicken and noticed an immediate transformation when the kitten realized what Nick was holding.  The cute and fluffy kitten excitedly devoured all the meat and nearly took off his hand! This is a good sign of the leopard cat kitten’s health and growth.  PTWRC staff will continue to give the kitten more meat as it rapidly grows. 

The first quarter of 2016 was a busy month for PTWRC, as the staff catered to 365 new animal arrivals to the center and 31 births in the center.  161 animals were also released back into the wild in the first quarter.

Thank you for helping the Phnom Tamao Wildlife Rescue Center care for and release rescued wildlife.  Without your support, these animals would not get the second chance at life that they receive at PTWRC!
