Six adorable and rare South China tiger cubs are set to make their first public appearance at a zoo in central China.
The cubs, three male and three female, were born to two mothers on January 10 and 11 at the Wangcheng Park in Luoyang, Henan province, marking an important step in the conservation of the rare animal.
The South China tiger is listed as 'critically endangered' on the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) red list and is guarded under first-class state protection in China.
