Announcing the birth of 4 Pallas' Cat kittens on March 20! The parents are Minka and Luka, who also had 3 kittens last year. The Pallas's cat is also known as a Manul. About the size of a large domestic cat, the manul is covered with long course fur, sandy to grey in base color with white tips on the guard hairs which gives an overall 'frosted' appearance. The legs are short and stumpy compared to the overall body size - the small broad head has high set eyes, and low set ears. The head has a striped facial ruff. The tail of the manul cat is tipped with black and has darker rings toward the end, similar dark markings can also be faintly seen across the side of its back. They are rare in captivity, EFBC is one of a handful of places worldwide breeding them.
Our first Twilight Tour of the year is this Saturday on April 29. The pallas' cat kittens will not be on display. Adults (18+ years) will get the opportunity to explore behind the scenes as the back areas are open. For $20 per person, prepaid guests can enter at 5 pm while people paying at the door will wait until 5:30 or when the prepaid line is gone. Bring cash for the bake sale, barbecue, and raffle!

Military Appreciation Days - May 28 & 29 2017 (free admisson for active military and immediate family members)
