dcnovice -> Tiger Cubs! (8/8/2013 6:03:05 AM)

A bit of sunshine from the Smithsonian's National Zoo:

Sumatran tiger Damai gave birth to two Sumatran tiger cubs on Monday evening, August 5, 2013! These cubs are a conservation success. Sumatran tigers are critically endangered in the wild, so every cub counts.

Damai gave birth to the first cub around 6:15 p.m. and the second around 8:23 p.m. Keepers have been monitoring the cubs and both appear healthy. Damai is being a great mom, and is nursing and grooming both cubs.

That's wonderful news. I hope they grow up to be
healthy and strong and have babies of their own.

Our local exotic feline center added a pair of Sumatran tigers within the last year. We've been over a couple of times since, but have only seen one venturing out into view. Beautiful animals.
