Hertfordshire Zoo, UK 🇬🇧

📸 Captured on a Sony A7III with the Tamron 150–500mm lens.

Gosh, do I love animals! 🥹 They really are some of the most beautiful creatures on Earth, and we should never take them for granted. My life would be so different if I'd never had the chance to connect with animals.

I hope you enjoy these photos and videos as much as I enjoyed capturing them. They were taken during a recent visit to Hertfordshire Zoo, and I loved every moment. My favourite has to be the adorable capybara pups all huddled together, closely followed by the playful otter having fun with a rock. 🥰

Which photo or video is your favourite?

Ash and Nila recently welcomed two adorable twin cubs! 🥹. I didn't get to see the little ones on this visit, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I'll be lucky enough to spot them next time I visit. 🤞❤️

Congratulations to the new parents! 🥰

🔺️ Did you know❓

Today is

🔺3 Facts about Melanistic Jaguars :

1. Black jaguars are sometimes misidentified as black panthers, which are not actually a species but a term popularly used for melanistic leopards and jaguars which have dark pigmentation. Both black big cats are part of the genus Panthera but leopards are found in Africa and Asia while jaguars are found in the Americas.

2. This black cat isn’t all black

A rare variant within the jaguar species, it’s estimated only 11 per cent of jaguars have this dark colouration. But while the black jaguar may appear to be all black, it has spots like other jaguars called “rosettes.” If you look closely at our black jaguar adoption, it boasts these unique rosettes, too.

3. Black jaguars live alone, marking their large territories with their s**t and by leaving distinctive claw markings on trees. They can kill just about any type of prey they encounter but prefer large animals such as capybaras, alligators, deer and armadillos.
