I found tiny leggies! Well one.
Yeah, she is missing her tail. How it happened is a mystery. I have talked to a keeper there I know a tiny bit. She is 54 days old now. Their guess is that a mixture of being really young and very inexperienced parents lead to that accident. It wasn’t chewed off from stress or anything but both are first time parents and the father has absolutely no idea what to do with the little thing. Nor how to carry it. You could say a cliche dad. :p
But there weren’t any complications or infections so she’s doing well for now and already out for adventure while her parents are very much asleep.
One downside he told me is rather unexpected, at least for me. They need to find another zoo to take her as leggies don’t tolerate them much after a year. But it’s apparently hard to find zoos willing to take such animals. At worst they’d need to keep her in a separated enclosure that doesn’t exist yet. Hm, maybe I should ask if I can have a leggy. Still looks illegally cute to me.
On the first photo the male, called Aaron, is on the left I think. The rather flat one. On the second he's the one standing.















Not only our zoo has tiny ones! I have them too. They are perfectly suitable as a travel companion too and will survive cuddles… and your backpack. If you'd like to give one, or both, a new home you can get them from my fox shop:
