Auckley, Rocco & Co in Yorkshire

14.3.2024 – Photos by Pat Waldron

There are so many lovely animals in the Yorkshire Wildlife Park so it’s difficult to say who’s the cutest of them all. If you ask me they are all cutest!!

The sun rays are already warming nicely so the hyenas were sun bathing.

The red panda with it’s ‘cat face’ was enjoying a meal … or was he/she washing the paws before a meal? 🙂

This must be the dessert

The big cats are well represented in this park.

This is Sayan …

Rocco loves to walk with mama Najuma.

Of course, the Restaurant Rhino was open for the mother and her daughter. 🙂

Rocco is a lovely little rascal and he’s developing just fine.

It looks like Kristen is checking that Auckley is presentable for her fans. 🙂

All the visitors have fallen in love with sweet Auckley. She really is a cutie pie!

When Pat took these photos Auckley began to feel tired ….

…. so she just had to yawn.

Oh my, she really was yawning!

Mama Kristen was keeping an eye on her baby girl and noticed it was time to sing – or meow – a lullaby to Auckley.

  1. Dear Pat!
    Thank you for these lovely pictures! Animal children always open the hearts of visitors and these are a very special selection. I can just imagine the delighted oohs and aahs of the visitors to Yorkshire’s Wildlife Park….
    I usually find the “furry ones” particularly appealing, but little Rocco is just sugar and one of my absolute favourites.
    “Cutie Pie” is the perfect term for little Auckley! She is absolutely adorable.

    Hugs

  2. Hallo Pat!
    Mutter Gepardin und Madame Rhino können zurecht mit Stolz ihre Babies zeigen.
    Aber eine Fotosession macht auch müde wie man sieht.
    Alle Babytiere sind bezaubernd.
    Vielen Dank und liebe Grüße!
