A pair of young clouded leopards entertain themselves and visitors at Tacoma, Washington's, Point Defiance Zoo. These lithe, graceful cats are a special part of the Southeast Asian Animal collection which tapirgal and I visited two weeks ago. Granted they aren't tapirs, but we found them pleasing to watch anyway! Tapir and Freiends Animal Store has a large selection of plastic and stuffed cats for sale including a wonderful stuffed leopard cub. These realistic cat replicas make particularly nice gifts and are also useful for animal science projects or dioramas.posted by Lee
