Can't get enough animal cuteness? Sled dog fans can now tune in live to watch Denali National Park’s newest litter of Alaskan husky puppies via the park’s Puppy Cam, officials from the National Park Service announced. The five pups—born on May 3 at the historic Denali Sled Dog Kennels—include two females, Squall and Storm, and three males, Graupel, Dew, and Fog. As part of a long-standing tradition, each litter is named according to a theme; this year’s “Weather Litter” honors the 100-year partnership between the National Weather Service and the Kennels.
The Denali Sled Dog Kennels, established over a century ago, is the oldest in the National Park Service and remains the only federally operated sled dog kennel in the United States.
