We also learned from Born in China that Mei Mei would eventually be alone in the wilderness and more, but it’s reassuring to know that Dawa’s cubs survived even in the harsh realities of their circumstances in the wilderness.
In fact, filming the snow leopards–aka what Conli calls “the most elusive animals on the planet”– was incredible for many reasons, but one big one was the fact that filmmakers became the first to be able to catch snow leopard cubs on film for the first time.
