Hope we're not seeing a disturbing trend of zoos intentionally breeding animals just for the aww factor in crowd draw.

That being said...

Awwwwwwwww, damn they's cute.

Why do baby anythings look so cuuuuuuute?

Are we just wired that way so we won't eat them or something?

Nevermind. Some animals like to eat babies ;)

They are going to do a major upgrade to the zoo over the next 10 years. Should be cool to see what they can do. It hasn't been done since the 80s.

You're not alone! It makes me really not understand the appeal for having kids when they just look like freakish shrunken people.

The three cubs were born in June. Until they are named, zoo officials call the youngsters "Small," "Medium" and "Large."

I think they should keep those names. Think of the amusing confusion when they're full grown and Large is actually smaller than Medium.

I actually read an article a few weeks ago about how some study or other had determined that humans are "hard-wired" to find baby animals and baby babys cute. I don't know if it's true or not. But even knowing that I couldn't keep that 'awwwwww' from coming out of my mouth when I saw those cubs ;-)

It's English. You speak it, or you don't.

Actually, it's far from pedantic. It's basic.

Farking Sweet: They are going to do a major upgrade to the zoo over the next 10 years. Should be cool to see what they can do. It hasn't been done since the 80s.

I'm gonna guess something with the herpetarium is probably in the master plan. I was there a year ago, and while it is well-kept, it is definitely a dated building.

Indeed. I have pictures in my inbox of a (not particularly close) friends' baby I haven't bothered to look at (I'm happy she's happy, but yeah). Human babies start being cute about 1.5yrs, and generally stop by about 3yrs, with exceptions, but I can look at a baby snake (even they have baby proportions, with a really big eye compared to their head) and feel as melty as over a kitten.

MaritimeGirl: The three cubs were born in June. Until they are named, zoo officials call the youngsters "Small," "Medium" and "Large."

I think they should keep those names. Think of the amusing confusion when they're full grown and Large is actually smaller than Medium.


That's a bit like our young cheetahs, except they're approximately the same size, I call them the big one, the middle one and the little one (based on their dominance hierarchy, and the little one does weigh 10lb less right now). They have actual names, but they're for keeper ears only, else they quit responding.

3steps: I actually read an article a few weeks ago about how some study or other had determined that humans are "hard-wired" to find baby animals and baby babys cute. I don't know if it's true or not. But even knowing that I couldn't keep that 'awwwwww' from coming out of my mouth when I saw those cubs ;-)

I've read articles to that effect, and extending to many non-human animals as well. That's probably one of the factors in cases such as the lionesses who adopt baby prey animals. Basically it's an instinctive reaction to anything having baby, rather than adult, proportions.
