Knowsley Safari Announces Arrival of Two 'Rare' Tiger Cubs - Liverpool Echo
MERSEYSIDE, UK, AUG 7 – The birth marks a key success in conservation, with only about 500 Amur tigers left in the wild, highlighting efforts to protect this endangered species.
- The conservation team at Knowsley Safari in Merseyside welcomed two Amur tiger cubs born on July 29 to Yuki, a five-year-old Amur tiger.
- Knowsley Safari received Yuki in February as part of a global breeding programme and collaborates with the Wildcats Conservation Alliance.
- The International Union for the Conservation of Nature classifies Amur tigers as endangered, with only around 500 remaining in the wild, and visitors can observe the cubs via the 'Cub Cam' system.
- Their sex remains unknown until the eight-week health check, and the cubs are expected to venture out in the paddock later this autumn.
- These births are the first in Britain since four female cubs at Longleat Safari in May 2024, as wild populations face threats from poaching and habitat loss from logging and deforestation.
