      The cub farther back (our right) is a male Bengal hybrid that was confiscated at the nearby Tijuana border crossing from someone trying to bring it into the country without a permit. US Fish and Wildlife placed it with San Diego Zoo temporarily (and zoo placed it at Safari Park).

      The cub that is closer (our left) is a male Sumatran that was born at National Zoo but rejected by his mother. He was sent to Safari Park to be a companion to the first one.

      I was shocked to learn that if you include these two, the park currently houses 11 tigers! The other nine are all Sumatran.

      This is probably the best (not placed for media) picture of tiger cups I have ever seen. Congrats to that great shot.
