Zookeepers report the cub is regularly nursing from mom and will continue to do so until she’s a few months old. She’ll get her first taste of meat soon. At a few months of age, she’ll also receive her own diet of solid food. Both the cub and Orya will remain off-exhibit for several more weeks to bond and benefit from “quiet time.”
