Cleo is an experienced mother with four offspring. She is currently living at the Bronx Zoo's Astor Court.

Cleo and the rest of the group have made a short visit to the New York Aquarium before in October 2005 when her pool was being renovated. When they first arrived at the aquarium, Cleo was often seen swimming with Phinneus, her youngest offspring. The group had adjusted well to the new environment.

Cleo then lated involved in more movings between exhibits, but this only applied to the "Bronx girls". Cleo and Smokey, one of the males that brought from the Bronx Zoo, were moved to another area of the Aquarium. Through the winter of 2006/2007, Cleo was moved back and forth, but she finally settled with Adrienne. Cleo reunited with Indy when they left the Aquarium in May 2007 and returned to the Bronx Zoo.

Cleo gave birth to a healthy female pup Katy, fathered by Kiani, on July 14, 2008.

Identification: Cleo has a very light blonde fur when dry. Cleo is often seen nursing her pup Katy.
