14 DAY TRIAL // About nine weeks ago, Cincinnati Zoo in the United States welcomed a baby ocelot. The kitten is now much stronger than it was at the time of its birth, and appears to love goofing around.
The video above made it online a few days ago, and shows the ocelot kitten playing with the toys staff at the Cincinnati Zoo have been kind enough to provide it with.
From where I stand, this furry creature is not all that different from your average household cat, at least as far as its playing behavior is concerned.
However, wildlife experts warn that, as cute as ocelots might appear at a first glance, these animals are actually quite territorial and can turn surprisingly violent should somebody intrude on their territory without being given permission to do so.
The ocelot kitten has been named Santos by its caretakers. They say that, once it reaches adulthood, it will weigh between 17 and 24 pounds (7.7 to 10.9 kilograms), and measure some 16 to 20 inches (40.6 to 51 centimeters) in height, Huffington Post reports.
