Last weekend Philippa the tigress passed a clinical examination

To control the state of health of the young tigress, she was subjected to a scheduled veterinary examination. Philya was weighed, measured, and her blood samples were taken for the laboratory tests. At her 9–10 months of age, Filya weighs 60 kg, which indicates a very good body condition! The state of her teeth was also examined: now she is at the final stage of replacement of milk teeth by permanent ones. Only the canines still remain unchanged. Philippa develops normally according to her age. After examination, the tigress was provided with a new enclosure, earlier occupied by the leopard Leo80M. This enclosure is of more complex structure, with various elements of habitat enrichment; its main area is connected with a larger hunting enclosure. Now Philya’s diet consists mostly of live food that she can catch herself in the spacious hunting enclosure. Reply
