The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland (RZSS) has welcomed four-year-old cheetah Domino to the zoo from Zoo de Cerza in France.
Keepers at the wildlife conservation charity will soon start to introduce Domino to the zoo’s male cheetah, Billy. They will live separately at first and gradually be introduced over the coming weeks with the hopes they will one day have cubs.
Cheetahs are found across Africa and in some parts of Southwestern Asia. The species is listed as Vulnerable in the wild with a decreasing population estimated at 6,500 mature individuals.
Visitors to Edinburgh Zoo will be able to get a glimpse of the new arrival from Monday November 10 as she is given time to settle into her new surroundings.
