Not long ago, at a zoo in Daejeon, three brothers and sisters of tigers from Mt. Baekdu were born and celebrated their 100th day in good health.
Reporter Lee Yong-shik captured the image of the tiger cubs, which are said to have been fully raised by the mother tiger without the intervention of the zookeeper.

Three tiger cubs run after their mother.
She splashes and swims, then sits and rests in the cool water.
The mother carries her cubs with her, and does not take a moment to look away.
Tiger cubs also play pranks on their mother.
It is a family of tigers from Mt. Baekdu with a prominent king and prince on their foreheads.

Three tigers, two males and one female, were born on July 3rd.
A mother and her father, a tiger, were also born and mated here at the zoo.
The three tiger siblings are raised by their mothers themselves.
The breeder did not intervene, such as feeding milk, and left it entirely to the mother so that the young would not lose their wildness.

For the tiger cubs who passed 100 days safely, a 100-day feast was prepared with beef and raw chicken cake.
The mother first takes a bite and eats food.
The chicks have grown enough to eat 300 grams of chicken instead of milk.
With the birth of three tiger cubs, the O-World tiger family also increased to 10.
A tiger cub leaves her mother at the age of 1 year, when she becomes her first child, and enters her independent life.

The three tigers do not have a name yet, but we decided to name it after collecting citizens' opinions.
