Five adorable Arctic fox cubs have been born at the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland’s (RZSS) Highland Wildlife Park. Keepers at the wildlife conservation charity say the new arrivals are doing well and have slowly started exploring their surroundings under the watchful eyes of parents Sarah and Jack.
Keith Gilchrist, animal collection manager at Highland Wildlife Park, said, “We were thrilled to welcome Sarah and Jack’s first litter of cubs on 9 May. Sarah has been very busy building an extensive network of tunnels and burrows and has spent a lot of time underground with the cubs in the weeks following their birth. It is fantastic to now see them growing in confidence and getting curious about the world beyond the burrows. Some lucky visitors have already been able to spot them out and about exploring their enclosure.
