    flamingo land now occupies two species of tiger, siberian(amur) and sumatran.
    Tuesday 2nd September saw the arrival of Bawa, a two-year-old male Sumatran tiger, weighing in at a healthy 109 kilos. Just a few days later, Surya, a 17-month-old female, joined Flamingo Land’s newest arrival and both are now settling in well.

    Bawa was born to Nias and Puna at WHF in Kent. Bawa leaves behind his brother Asu who will shortly be going to France.
    Bawa is one of my boys that I helped look after and he is beautiful and I miss him dearly. Will be visiting him in April when the park opens.
