Lynx cubs at La Cuniacha

La Cuniacha animal park near Piedrafita welcomed 3 new Lynx cubs this spring. Apparently they were born very early and the park wardens are concerned that they won’t make it through any cold spells.

Keeping my fingers crossed for them as they look incredibly cute in the video and would be great to see them as young cubs this summer.

The park helps preserve animals that were once native to the Pyrenees. They’ve european bison, ibex, wolves and are part of the Przewalski horse breeding program.
