Today I was at the Novosibirsk Zoo and saw only one manul. They didn’t label it, so I don’t know its name. 😾😾

Could be a Snezhanna!
This is Zhora

The Novosibirsk Zoo is reluctant to reveal the animals’ names. It does not reveal the layout of the animals’ enclosures at all. On top of that, the animals often move from one enclosure to another.
Did you go to the Leopard Café? The manuls at the Novosibirsk Zoo are exhibited in two places: on the so-called Manul Alley (where you saw Zhora) and near the leopards and otters behind the Leopard Café.
Zhora. His Grumpiness.
To see more manuls, you need to stock up on time. On July 12 and 13 there were also periods when only Zhora sat on the alley in just this pose
Zhora is the best!
And where is his favorite bed?
Sitting on the log doesn’t seem to please Zhora
anna_yu, he has a very small enclosure right now.
anna_yu,
To the right there’s only the shed and the wall between Zhora’s enclosure and Adelka-the-Meatball’s enclosure.
