Hi there!

Was wondering why are they only out 3 days a week? Will the schedule change by the end of the month by chance? I did not get to see them during my last visit in March and was hoping to see them this time around. Will be down in S. CA at the end of month. Would appreciate a reply, thanks.

Thanks, Kym, for this entry on the blog – it’s piqued my interest again. I plan to see them this Wednesday, if the weather holds and we don’t have rain! I’ve seen them once before and am excited to see them again!

Can’t wait!

Thanks for the information on the tiger cubs, Kym! They will be beautiful cats when they grow up.

Thanks for the great update on the cubs, Kym. Question, where are the cubs the other 4 days of the week? I presume they are sharing exhibit time with others, so who are the others?

Tiger cubs are so fun to watch. I loved watching the three at the NZ. They just turned 3, and one of them left months ago for another zoo. It is hard to tell whether I am watching one of the cubs or their parents now because all 4 are on exhibit separately and they have gotten almost full size. They rarely ‘play’ any more, and sleep as all tigers do for most of a 24 hour day.

So, WAP visitors go see them while they are young and active. They will grow up all too fast before your eyes.

Kym replies: We have three other adult tigers that share the exhibit with Delta and her cubs. When they are not on exhibit they are either in one of our two other off-exhibit outdoor yards or in the house with lots of fun enrichment items to keep them stimulated and active!

OOh I wish I could come visit the tigers. Alas, my budget will not allow. Big Cats are my favorite zoo animals and I’m always eager to see pictures and hear about how they interact. I can imagine the cubs with their bones. What a treat!
