Mexico Zoo is busy because the tiger series is born

Caregivers at a zoo in Mexico are running around with bottles of milk after 4 big mothers of the cat family have 9 children within 2 months, including a rare white tiger.

These 20-day-old Bengal tigers, including a white female, are on Brisa, frolicking around a cramped lawn, while two young lions, a new-born jaguar and 3 uncle. Other tiger cubs are biting each other in a nearby wooden corral.

The family zoo manager called Zoologico de Vallarta said nothing is the secret behind the aforementioned mass reproduction - just a convenient natural environment very similar to their wilderness and dedicated care of the staff.

The zoo with these 350 animals is 5 hectares wide, housed in a bustling 59-hectare forest of monkeys and birdsong. The zoo was opened in 2005 with the aim of taking care of Mexico's endangered animals such as jaguars and wolves.
