Smokey is growing up

Gaining independence and learning to make decisions - they grow up fast! Smokey is around 10 months old now.
If you have time here is some video https://youtu.be/UCsivLhx7HI

Thank you for the awesome comments and questions on my photos.

Love that mum is nearby on YouTube!! Do they fall often and if so, how well do they bounce??

[Yolanda]

Smokey is adorable

@30pics4jackiesdiamond glad you enjoyed the video! fortunately they don't fall often - usually a fall is a result of fighting. They rarely survive a fall, although we sometimes necropsy old males that have internal organ scarring that suggests they have fallen in the past and been very injured. I wish we knew more about them!

So adorable, Fav

Love this photo and the video. His arms and grip are so much smaller than Mom’s. He persists though and seems resourceful.
