Summary

San Diego Zoo just welcomed two adorable binturong babies—nicknamed “bintlets”—the first in 26 years, born March 27. These tree-dwelling “bearcats” from Southeast Asia smell like popcorn thanks to a chemical in their pee, and moms can even delay pregnancy for months. First-time parents Nettle and Garret are raising the twins behind the scenes, but lucky visitors on special tours might catch a glimpse of these rare, fascinating critters.
