March 6, 2008, current new mother Sumatran Tiger Leanne/Skylar gave birth to her first litter of cubs with father Bali/George.
Happy Birthday
Jae-Jae,
Burung,
and
Kami-Sambol!
Hope you boys are loving life!
I miss you!
The three male cubs were named by the keepers and lived at the San Francisco Zoo, where they were born, until they were alittle over a year old. You can view some of my fav fotos from my own archive
All three then moved together to the Akron Zoo for their new Tiger exhibit. I was given some wonderful photos by the Staff at the Akron Zoo to put on my first Zoo blog, please take a look, they are beautiful!
The boys have since moved on to other Zoo's starting a journey that will eventually lead them to meeting their selected mates as part of the SSP (Species Survival Plan). Burung and Kami-Sambol moved together to the Montgomery Zoo at the end of 2010. Information I have indicates they are both still there, but I'm trying to get an update. Jae-Jae moved to the London Zoo in October of 2012.
You can keep up with them via Social Media sites.
The London Zoo posted this update on Jae-Jae last week, as he met his new girlfriend Melati for the first time :)
Montgomery Zoo was in the news last year when Kami-Sambol made a Super Bowl prediction.
