At Parco Natura Viva (Bussolengo) three cubs (2.1) were born on 3 June 2020 to mum Luva and father Botsman (if it is the same one when did move from Whipsnade?). The three have been named Krai, Zov and Alina.

VIDEO | Tallinna loomaaia amuuri tiiger Pootsman sõitis täna Tšehhi Thank you for the information. Pootsman must have moved to Bussolengo from Lesna-Got (see above link).and is named as the the father of the 3 cubs born there 10 April 2019. I initially thought it may have been Botzman because of the name - do both translate into English as 'Boatman'?. Looks like Pootsman is having quite a tour since he left Tallinn!
Male Botzman has arrived at Highland Wildlife Park this week, from Whipsnade Zoo: New tiger arrives at Highland Wildlife Park | Highland Wildlife Park
Male Samur (b.26 Jun 2012, Wuppertal), who moved to Nuremberg on 6 Nov 2013, moved to Stendal, 5 Nov 2020. His replacement at Nuremberg is 'Nikolai', born at Lisbon, 20 May 2017 to Tantan & Natalia. He was originally named 'Huma' in Portugal. He moved to Hodenhagen (unfortunately, I do not when) and from there to Nuremberg, 26 Nov 2020.
Ingrid Alexandra's immediate line continues with the 2 females from her 3rd litter born 27 June 2010: Roza and Zaria. Roza has had 2 litters at Debrecen: 21 April 2017 (1.0 Darius) 25 Aug 2017 (0.2 Dana & Daria). Darius was being hand-reared, which is why Roza had 2 litters in 2017. Zaria has had one litter at Orsa: 17 January 2018 (1.1 - sadly, I do not know if these 2 have names).
This refers to VALENTINA born 6 June 2017 (IGOR x RAJA) at Hodonin. I have been trying to find out the identity of the female leaving a UK zoo to go to Plzen. I think the most likely candidate is TATANA from Colchester, as I understand they were hoping to move her before the end of this year. Can anyone confirm this?

Amur, male tiger born at Nordens Ark in 2013 has moved from Zoo Magdeburg to Kristiansand Norway, to be paired with Boonya.
ULYSSES, I presume, b. 15/08/2000 Kiev, transfered 16/05/2002 Kristiansand. I ignore his death's date (alive 17/05/2015).
Ulysses. He was first paired with Reyka, later with Boonya. Ulysses and Reyka's son Rex was there untill quite recently, but was never paired with Boonya because they didn't get along. Now that Rex has passed away there is room for a new tiger male and hopefully cubs.
