After Snow Leopard couple Shanti and Roscoe gave birth to twin baby snow leopards just two years ago, the couple was blessed again with a new pair of fluffy little leopards. The babies — one girl and one boy — were born April 14th.

Shanti and her cubs will remain inside until late June for health reasons, but here’s a behind the scenes look at their lives.
