STORRS, Conn. (WTNH) — The University of Connecticut is welcoming its new mascot, Jonathan XV.
Jonathan XV bears marking that mirror the Husky logo with ocean-blue eyes. He’s a purebred Siberian Husky, hailing from a six-puppy litter born in Ontario, Canada.
The canine is the university’s 15th mascot since 1935; huskies have been named Jonathan over the years after the last colonial and first state governor of Connecticut Jonathan Trumbull.
