I'm still a sucker for <a href="http://www.petsugar.com/tag/baby+animals" >baby animals</a> (especially <a href="http://www.petsugar.com/1587509" >exotic cats</a>) so when I saw a newborn black Otorongo, I had to pass it along. This two-month-old Peruvian jaguar, known as an Otorongo (Panthera onca), was born at the Huachipa Zoo in Lima, Perú making it just the third jaguar ever born in captivity in that country. Look closely and you can see the pattern on this big cat's gallery when you read more. </p> <p><div class='gallery_thumbs ' ><div class=title><!-- gallery teaser --><a class=photo-count href='http://www.petsugar.com/1624672'>View 5 Photos ›</a><!-- /gallery teaser --></div><ul></ul></div><br /> <a href="http://www.gettyimages.com" target="_blank">Source</a></p> http://www.petsugar.com/1624463#comment zoos baby animals wild animals cute Otorongo jaguars Peru Lima Huachipa Zoo Tue, 13 May 2008 08:00:15 -0700 PetSugar http://www.petsugar.com/1624463 http://www.petsugar.com/3404881 <a href="http://www.petsugar.com/3404881"><img width=160 height=107 src='http://media.onsugar.com/files/ons1/192/1922243/27_2009/15117a0aa24692bc_dogpaper.large.jpg'></div></a><p>You may think the statement "the dog ate my homework" is a well-worn cliché used only by fictional children in books or movies. Well, think again, as not one but two recent news stories feature dogs enjoying some paper goodies. <br /> Case one, a woman (now being charged with identity theft and forgery) <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/aponline/2009/06/30/us/AP-US-ODD-Dog-Checks.html?_r=1" target="_blank">who claimed</a> her dog got into her purse and ate all her personal checks . . . so she helped herself to her ex's account. Case two, a teenage boy whose one-year-old Golden Retriever <a href="http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/31663499/ns/travel-news/" target="_blank">chewed a corner of a passport</a>, obscuring some numbers and causing an airport fiasco before his class trip to Peru.</p> <p>Weigh in on both these cases and let me know if your furry friends love to chomp on any papers as well in the comments below.</p> http://www.petsugar.com/3404881#comment Getty news scoop Do Tell Tue, 30 Jun 2009 11:40:10 -0700 PetSugar http://www.petsugar.com/3404881 http://www.petsugar.com/1624672 <a href="http://www.petsugar.com/1624672"><img width=160 height=107 src='http://media.onsugar.com/files/upl1/10/104166/20_2008/babyjaguar.large.jpg'></div></a> <div class='gallery_thumbnail'> <a href='/1624672'></a> </div> Baby Otorongo born at Huachipa zoo in Lima, Peru. <div class='call_to_action'> <!-- gallery teaser --><a href="/1624672?page=0,0,0">View Slideshow ›</a><!-- /gallery teaser --> </div> <hr class=space> http://www.petsugar.com/1624672#comment Mon, 12 May 2008 19:38:17 -0700 PetSugar http://www.petsugar.com/1624672
