Kitten of Kelen 2010 Ⅱ—the marvelous Pallas's cat, who used to live in Leningrad zoo.
They were born on April 2, 2010 in Leningrad zoo to the family of Khan the Pallas's cat and Kelen the Pallas's cat.
Unfortunately Kitten of Kelen 2010 Ⅱ is not with us anymore. They passed away on April 12, 2010, they were ten days old.
One of the biggest problems of keeping Pallas's cats in captivity is the high mortality rate among Pallas's kittens. They are most vulnerable during their first year of life. In the first year of life mortality rate among Pallas's kittens in zoos varies from 50% to 70%. In the wild mortality rate varies from 70% to 90%. Unfortunately Kitten of Kelen 2010 Ⅱ didn't survive the first year of his life.
