Tigress Rani Gives Birth to Five Cubs at Pilikula
Mangaluru: ‘Rani’, the Royal Bengal Tigress at Pilikula Biological Park has given birth to five healthy cubs. Rani was brought from Bannerghatta Biological Park, on exchange of one male tiger ‘Vinay’ from Pilikula.
Since the first two months are critical for the newborn cubs in terms of contracting infections, only the caretakers of the animals are allowed to monitor the cubs. Visitors will be allowed once the cubs are vaccinated and fit to be exhibited.
