These two Persian newspapers will be raised at the Persian Newspaper Recovery and Conservation Center, in the Sochi National Park. It is known that the parents of the two jaguars were "imported" to the center in 2012 from the Lisbon Zoo, Portugal.

The fact that two extremely rare Persian newspapers were born in the artificial environment was a success point in the effort to preserve this species of leopard.

Persian newspapers are one of the largest-sized leopard subspecies, once considered "monsters" that dominate the southwestern Caucasus Mountains in Russia and the southern Caspian Sea region.

However, due to hunting and loss of habitat, Persian newspapers have been listed as endangered animals, with only about 1,290 individuals believed to be alive in the natural environment.
