Son of Lastochka b. 2020—the gorgeous Pallas's cat, who used to live in Novosibirsk Zoo.
He was born on June 11, 2020 in Novosibirsk Zoo to the family of Zelenogorsk the Pallas's cat and Lastochka the Pallas's cat.
Unfortunately this manul is not with us anymore. He passed away in the winter of 2020–2021, he was five months 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 Son of Lastochka b. 2020 didn't survive the first year of his life.
