This cool cat can get down trees head first
Shaldon Wildlife Trust, a small Zoo in Teignmouth, is excited to see Harley, the Margay kitten exploring his enclosure.Harley has been snuggled up in his heated den area with mum Josefien for the past few months as he would be in the wild.
Margay have flexible ankles allowing them to run head first down trees - One of only 3 species known to do this. According to the Wildlife trust, Harley is having great fun learning all the tricks of becoming an independent cat.
In the wild, Margay have a very varied diet including small mammals, birds, primates, eggs and frogs.
Dad George is spending some time away from the family. He has travelled to a zoo in Kent to breed with no less than two females before he returns to Shaldon after Harley has reached maturity and moved on himself.
