Zarias cub killed
Today at Tiger Canyons South Africa the tiger called Tiger Boy killed one of Zarias cubs.
The cub was interesting in that it was half white half normal colour.
Tiger Boy was fighting with Corbett the father of the cub killed. Tiger Boy was in fact attacked by both Corbett and Zaria.
However Corbett failed to drive Tiger Boy from the area and he returned to kill Zarias cub. Zaria has two cubs remaining.

Zebra were released into the cheetah and the tiger area at Tiger Canyons.
Except for the foals zebra are too big and dangerous for cheetah, however tigers have the power and strength to overpower a zebra.

If tigers can catch zebra that will be the most impressive thing for me, there is no more alert animal than the Zebra in Africa. Not an easy catch, not at all! Reply
