The latest tallies are in . . . and your votes [1] named this Snow Leopard cub, Emba, [2] as the cutest zoo babe born in '08. (Good choice since that face is pretty adoro!) I also wanted to give a special shoutout to Monifa, since the pygmy hippo's piccys were some of the sweetest I've ever seen (refresh your memory here [3]). Let's be honest, what baby animal isn't absolutely precious?! Think on that while I'm awwwing away . . .
