Bengal tigers charm visitors at Peshawar Zoo

Two healthy Bengal tiger cubs bring new life to the zoo

PESHAWAR:

Peshawar Zoo has welcomed a delightful addition with the arrival of two baby Bengal tigers, instantly becoming a major attraction for visitors.

According to zoo authorities, the cubs are in good health and were initially kept under special intensive care. After showing steady improvement, they have now been shifted to a general enclosure.

The administration said the young tigers have been put on public display, drawing large crowds, particularly families and children, who are enjoying their playful and innocent movements. The cubs have quickly captured the attention of visitors, adding to the zoo's growing popularity.

Wildlife officials noted that the Bengal tiger is among the world's most powerful and majestic wild cats, typi-cally inhabiting dense forests, lush grasslands, and areas close to water.

The species thrives in warm and humid

climates and is known for its strong swimming ability.

Naturally solitary, the Bengal tiger is highly territorial.

Zoo management said special arrangements have been made to ensure proper care, nutrition, and a near-natural environment for the cubs to support healthy growth.

Visitors have welcomed the initiative, expressing hope that it will promote not only recreation but also greater public awareness about wildlife conservation.
