Binturong Squabbles With His New Mate

Elliot and Ellie are the rare Binturong (Arctictis binturong), also known as a bearcat from the Dudley zoo in England. Elliot moved into his new enclosure first and than Ellie the female Binturong joined him a bit later. You normally see these two rarely active in the day as they sleep through most of the day. You're really lucky if you do see them moving around in the daytime. Elliot is sleeping, but when he wakes up he is looking to go outside, but his mate is having none of it and blocks the exit. She starts to snap at him and no matter what he tries, she just won't let him pass.
