The Tiger Cubs
I photographed these two tiger cubs on November 9, 2017 at the San Diego Zoo's Safari Park. I wished they were not up against a wire fence, but at least their eyes were open, and they did move from time to time. Really cute to watch.
According to the San Diego Union Tribune on October 17, 2017: "The 12-week-old Bengal tiger cub was brought to the park in August after a teenager tried to smuggle it into the U.S. from Mexico. The 14-week-old Sumatran cub was born at the Smithsonian’s National Zoo in Washington, D.C., but its mother was becoming aggressive toward him when nursing. When word of the other seized orphan cub spread, the two zoos decided to put the tigers together as playmates."
Other pictures that I've taken over the years at Safari Park can be seen, logically enough, in my Safari Park album. www.flickr.com/photos/9422878@N08/sets/72157628351207247/
