    I believe she's a little over a year old... born in March 2013. Posted 11 years ago

    It was taken at the Seneca Park Zoo in Rochester, NY. I had to do some very minor editing to reduce the reflection of the glass we were looking through, but I was careful not to alter any of the markings. We were lucky she was so close and easy to photograph! Posted 11 years ago
