Fang Ye wasn't sure if it was his voice or Charcoal's low growl that startled Mizzle!
Warily peering out from the birthing room, she relaxed a lot when she saw it was Fang Ye, and sauntered out at her leisure.
Watching from the monitoring room, Zhang breathed a sigh of relief seeing Mizzle didn't react violently.
Indeed, the zoo director was reliable.
These last couple of days, Mizzle had only briefly left the birthing room!
She would come out for only about five or six minutes every hour.
Maybe it was to take a walk, stretch her legs, get some exercise, or perhaps because Mimi had been carried around too long and needed a little break to hide away.
But she spent most of her time with her cubs, devoting herself to their care, frequently licking them clean.
Charcoal immediately became so happy he forgot himself, wagging his tail and heading over to Mizzle, trying to snuggle up for a kiss only to be smartly snarled at with a flash of teeth.
