Raymi is a little bigger than when he was last snapped, weighing in at around 20kg (which is a third of his mother’s weight).
Alongside the photos, which Durrell released on their Facebook page, it reads: “We absolutely love these images of our Andean bear mother and son, taken by their keeper, Leila.”
It also says that Raymi “can regularly be seen climbing right to the top of the tallest tree in their enclosure.”
Born on the 3rd January of this year, Raymi is the first Andean bear cub to be born at Durrell in over 20 years.
He was christened Raymi which is the Quechua word for “celebration”, which was the winning suggestion of 200 in a public competition to name the new arrival.
The name “Raymi” was chosen by two entrants to Durrell’s competition – Azlanna Coote from St Lawrence, and another entrant from Australia.
