Description

When: September 2, 2018

Where: Zoo Antwerpen, Belgium


Tinka accidentally dropped her piece of wood all the way to the ground while she was at the very top. But being a determined cub, she got it and climbed back up with it clutched tight between her teeth

It'll help her for sure, female animals have to be strong and resilient, and she's already shown she's got that character trait


It's a very cute name, suits her mother's too! (Who's name is Olinka)

Haha, her mother sure wasn't interested, but she acted like there was a competitor for that piece of wood

It's no hardship standing and watching the cute moments, that's for sure
