Two tiger cubs were born in March and three in April.

The two cubs (both female) and the three (one male and two female) weighed approximately 1.5~2 kg at birth.

Now they weigh over 10 kg.

A full-grown Korean tiger normally weighs one hundred and scores of kilograms and its total length (tail length added) is 2.5 meters.

People are pleased with the increased Korean tigers, a rare breed of tiger, saying that it is a very good omen.

The Central Zoo has put the breeding of animals on a sci-tech basis, thus increasing the number of animals such as giraffe and horse of European breed.
