Newborn Jaguar Cub, San Diego is the new attraction gaining lots of fans in the zoo. Just before its gender was known, the third cub for 7-year-old mother Nindiri was reported getting lots of attentions and gaining popularity in the social media.

The 18-day-old Newborn Jaguar Cub, San Diego was very active as it enjoys quivering in the cave viewing area during Play Days. Mother Nindiri is a very caring mother to her cub by always watching over her baby as it gets steadier on its paws.

"We're at the stage now where there are times throughout the day where mom will leave the baby in the nesting area to go get some food or water for herself," Rick Schwartz, ambassador for the zoo, told ABC News. "In the zoo environment we take advantage of that and go ahead and take the baby while she's away to do a health check with our veterinary staff."

Born on March 12, the Newborn Jaguar Cub, San Diego weighing over two pounds at birth has doubled its weight in two weeks. The new addition in the family of San Diego zoo was a healthy baby boy, ABC News reported.

Schwartz stated that the newborn Jaguar Cub, San Diego can be viewed easily in the glass protected wall cave bedroom. Hay and a rock were added for the little cub to enjoy his place.

People can view the adorable cub from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. only if his mother Nindiri allows. But he assured, most of the time, the newborn jaguar cub can be seen as Nindiri seems to be very proud of her baby.

According to the zoo keeper, the newborn Jaguar Cub, San Diego is growing up fast. He could tell that Nindiri is a good mother as she doesn't leave her cub, but she makes sure that her baby gets all the proper care that it needs.

Jaguars, the largest cat in the Americas are listed under the Endangered Species Act (ESA). There are about 15,000 Jaguars remaining in the forests and a small population of 80 to 120 cats in the remote mountains of Sonora, Mexico, according to the Defenders.

The newborn Jaguar Cub, San Diego addition to the zoo means a lot to animal advocate groups. Senior keeper Chad Summers of San Diego zoo claimed that since jaguars are endangered animal, every birth is very important. He added they want to end its extinction and they are doing everything in the zoo to fulfill it.

The 7-year-old Nindiri spends most of her time assisting and teaching her baby to walk. Schwartz added that mother jaguar is a caring mother to her baby. Maybe this is the reason why the newborn Jaguar Cub, San Diego is developing properly and hitting all the milestones at the right time.
