It should be reminded that four ‘Siberian wonders’ appeared in the Feldman Ecopark in March 2016: Daleela, the Siberian (or Amur) tiger gave birth to cubs again – two females and two males.

Almost two months, the little predators were under the round-the-clock supervision of veterinarians and lived in individual premises. Now, after the vaccination and other necessary medical procedures, the tiger cubs are ready to go out and meet their neighbours and the visitors of the Feldman Ecopark.

According to the words of specialists, as soon as the kids become strong enough for independent life, they will be given to the zoos of Ukraine and the other countries.

It should be reminded that Daleela also gave birth to four tiger cubs the year before last. One of the predators – Limba – was left in the Regional Landscape Park; the others were given to the zoological parks of Ukraine.

It should be noted that there are 10 tigers in the Feldman Ecopark collection. They include two White Bengal tigers and eight Siberian tigers. The Siberian (or Amur) tiger is one of the least numerous species. It is in the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List.
