Two rare Amur tigers born at UK safari park
Two rare tiger cubs have been born at a safari park in the UK.

Knowsley Safari in north-west England welcomed the baby Amur tigers at the end of last month.اضافة اعلان

Keepers say they are "over the moon" with the new arrivals, in what they describe as a boost for conservation efforts.

Amur tigers are the largest cat species in the world and are classified as endangered by the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), with only around 500 remaining in the wild.

The baby tigers arrived on 29 July to mother Yuki and father Makari.

The cubs are the first Amur tiger cubs to be born at Knowsley Safari for nearly thirty years.

However, it will still be a few months before staff will be able to find out whether the new arrivals are boys or girls.

The cubs are expected to stay indoors for the time being, before venturing out in the paddock later this autumn. BBC
