Eighty-four Siberian tigers, among the world’s rarest animals, have been born since March at a northeastern China breeding center, an official said Sunday.
Liu Dan, an official with the Hengdaohezi Feline Breeding Center in the suburbs of Harbin, capital of Heilongjiang province, was quoted by Xinhua News Agency as saying the cubs were doing well.
He said 13 more pregnant Siberian tigers were expected to give birth to a total of 20 to 30 cubs by October.
