The four endangered Manul kittens -- one male and three females -- made their first appearance Wednesday since being born at the Berlin zoo.

They are native to the mountains of Afghanistan and Mongolia.

The cats are often hunted for their fur, the longest and thickest of any cat species.

Once mature, these cats will be sent to other zoos around the world as part of a breeding designed to save the species.
