Marseille - Rythmes scolaires : la justice contraint la mairie à organiser des garderies
These six adorable little newborn tiger cubs were practicing their roars for the first time after coming into the world earlier this week. A Siberian tigress named Frida gave birth to four tiger cubs at Crimea Taigan Wild Animal Park but also ‘adopted’ two others that were rejected by their own mother. It's highly unusual for a tiger mom to adopt any additional cubs after giving birth to her own, and zoo staff are ecstatic about Frida's big heart.
Zhu Yugang, the director of the 522 acres Sanzhen Tiger Zoo in the Chinese town of Jinjing, Hunan Province, is one of those leading the charge to restore tiger populations by breeding. The Sanzhen Tiger Zoo attempts to emulate conditions in the wild as closely as possible, providing wide open spaces for roaming, living animals for hunting, and scientifically appropriate conditions for breeding, all managed by a professional team of veterinarians and breeders.
Three newly-born Amur tiger cub triplets were seen playing with their parents at their new home in Belogorsk’s Taigan Safari Park on Monday, after the sanctuary welcomed the cuddly cats into this world last week. The newborn triplets represent a major boost to the population as there are only about 500 Amur tigers left in the wild, mostly in Russia's Far East provinces. Amur tigers were once found throughout the Russian Far East, northern China and the Korean peninsula, but were driven to the brink of extinction by the 1940s as a result of hunting. However, Russia granted the tiger full protection soon afterwards and numbers have risen.
