Los Angeles Zoo Sumatran Tiger Cubs (Video)
At just four weeks old, you can see how the L.A. Zoo’s three Sumatran tiger cubs are just beginning to build strength in their legs. While the cubs spend a majority of their time with mom, their keepers at the Los Angeles Zoo also spend time with them each day in order to foster a trusting relationship with them. Human interaction with the cubs from an early age allows zoo keepers and veterinarians to safely examine them during routine check-ups.The birth of these Sumatran tiger cubs is a cause for celebration for zoos and an important milestone in the conservation of the species.
