An orphaned cougar cub found in the state of Washington is now calling the Queen City home.

Dickerson Park Zoo shared photos of its newest addition, a four-month-old female cub named Drax, on its Facebook page Monday morning.

Drax was found by the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. She is being cared for by the zoo's veterinary team and zookeepers, the post said.

Drax is not currently on exhibit. Stay tuned to Dickerson Park Zoo's social media pages for updates.
