Timofey's Hillfort

more_horiz

Allow me to invite you on a tour of Timofey's personal domain.

Timofey's hillfort is located opposite the bamboo bear pagodas. If you look into the prince's courtyard from the right-hand side, you will see a rock garden shaped like bamboo bears. Children love these stones.

On September 10 of this year, in the post Marik. The publication “History of the Incident” has been finalized, I wrote:

This evening, news arrived that brings the difficult days of hope and waiting to a close. Marik opened the door to summer and went over the rainbow to a land of better hunting and soft little clouds.

The Fattening Bulletin

more_horiz

The managing editor of the “Fattening Bulletin” supplement to Manul's Health magazine has gathered the most interesting news from this intense fattening week for you.

Troubling news is coming from Krasnoyarsk. Boris’s keepers have broken the megacalorimeter; fattening is now being carried out by the heap method. For instance, yesterday Boris was heaped with two buckets of rats.

The Leningrad Zoo declined to comment on the disappearance of seven rabbit carcasses from the feed kitchen. An internal investigation is underway. The editorial team has also learned that the hammock in Shu the manul’s enclosure has torn. The bed could not withstand the cat’s body weight. The keepers refuse to comment on a possible connection between the two incidents.

At the Novosibirsk Zoo, one of the manuls got stuck in the fattening gauge. The zoo declined to comment. A user of the Manulization project, who wished to remain anonymous, attributed the incident to the gauge’s insufficient gauge. The editorial team, meanwhile, recalls the words of a well-brought-up rabbit.

At Korkeasaari Zoo in Helsinki, Finland, the carnivore department declined to comment on the need to purchase new scales, citing the need to meet the highest standards. The editorial team declines to comment on the broad interpretation of the term “high.”

A manulover’s birthday and applied manul numerology

more_horiz

Not everyone is lucky enough to be born on May 4, sharing a birthday with Naim, or on June 11 with Timofey, let alone on May 15 with Lastochka or May 7 with George. But there is no need to despair! Manul numerologists are rushing to the rescue. Take a look at the list: it contains manuls with IDs from 1 to 31 according to the Manulization database.

Choose from this list the manuls matching your birth day and month. Congratulations! In the general case, you have two birthday totem manuls. And if, for example, you were born on August 8, you get two of the most wonderful totem manuls at once: George.

The Challenges of Manul Photography. Leningrad Zoo

more_horiz

Leningrad Zoo offers virtually every obstacle imaginable for the amateur manul photographer. Indeed,

After a day of despair, it seems as though something is starting to work out. Only later do you realize that the key word is “seems.” Any attempt to “subtract” the mesh results in multicolored streaks of the most psychedelic kind.

The Art of Manul Photography: The Colors of Autumn

more_horiz

I love autumn. It is not only a season of fading, but also a riot of color and preparation for wintering. Part of the cycle of renewal and rebirth.

In autumn, manuls are especially beautiful. Their movements acquire a calculated economy, their coats turn reddish and grow fluffier, their sides become rounder.
