In a rare incident, an albino puma cub was born in a zoo in the Central American country Nicaragua roughly a month ago. The tiny snow-white puma cub is one of the four such pumas across the world today.
The albino puma cub was born along with its two beige-colored and spotted siblings at Thomas Belt Zoo in Nicaragua. The cubs are almost a month old and they are said to be healthy. The cubs are kept in a sealed cage, to ensure that their mother is not stressed or she gets confused with the odour of humans from that of her newborn babies-- as this leads her to attack them. Meanwhile, the male puma- who has fathered the cubs- is also kept in a separate cage as the males are known for killing their young ones.
