Description

Taken at Cleveland MetroParks Zoo - Cleveland, OH

I'm sure that many of you are thinking "It's about time you added animal photos again, Taryn!" I know, I know.

Both of the koalas at the Cleveland Zoo have baby koalas at this time--this baby is about six months old (an approximation by one of the animal interpreters) and has been doing very well. Mom probably looks very weary because yesterday was a very busy and loud day for her as kids coming in for field trips came through her area. But she was holding up beautifully and you can see the baby was completely unaffected.

When I first came by the exhibit after my volunteer walk-through was over, mom and daughter were cuddled together and not viewable but I swung by a second time a couple hours later and found them more mobile and about five minutes later this opportunity presented itself. They are a cute, adorable pair and I look forward to seeing the little girl grow up!
