I watched a documentary about felines on Animal Planet the other day. A manul mother and her children appeared for seconds, and the mother looked pretty much like Borsika. The narrator introduced the manul species breifly. A few years ago, a manul looked pretty much like Thomas appeared in another feline documentary on the channel. Manuls from Nordens Ark might be popular on the channel (though this is the thread for Budapest Zoo 
）

Hey, this looks like Nordens Ark and i think the mamanul here is the mother of Borsika, Micha.

Hey, the previous male of the zoo, Borisz, is listed on the site with a birth date of March 18, 2017, however, there is an archived article originally posted on July 22, 2013 about his arrival, which tells us about a one year old male coming from England and a Facebook post wishing him a happy 3rd birthday on April 24, 2015, which would make him twin brother of Mortti and Qara, listed as older siblings of his. Unsure about his death date, but looks like he was still alive as of his 6th birthday in 2018.

Hi!
Yep, that is a typo on the website 
March 18, 2017 is the wrong date. He was born April 24, 2012.
I’ll correct it!
That’s so great that you found it! Thank you!
