What beautiful cats these ocelots are. In appearance, they resemble small tigers: bright spots all over the body create a contrasting pattern, but unique to each animal, like fingerprints in humans. Interesting fact: kittens grow up for two years before they leave their home and begin to independently explore new territories. The first ocelots were brought to Siberia back in 1973. The couple's puppies were born in 1977 - until that moment, these animals had not been bred in any of the zoos of the Soviet Union. Video: Novosibirsk Zoo Poster for NHS in MAX.
