It was an exciting moment for two young tiger cubs, who were introduced to an adult tiger for the first time.
Two tiger cubs were given the chance to meet an adult tiger for the first time, passing an important milestone in their social development.
Becoming accepted by the group is essential for the cubs’ survival, so the tiger caretakers brought the cubs and one adult together in a sweet first meeting.
The cubs walked beside a fence, while the adult lay on the other side. They talked with each other using sounds called ‘chuffing,’ a non-threatening sound.
Hearing that, the caretakers were confident that the cubs would eventually be accepted by the group as they grew up.
The sweet and curious tiger cubs cautiously approached the adult several times before lying down in a submissive position. It was a successful first encounter.
