Over 30 Siberian tiger cubs born during peak breeding season in northeast China

More than 30 Siberian tiger cubs have been born at the Siberian Tiger Park in Hailin City, northeast China's Heilongjiang Province since early April, as the endangered species enters its annual peak breeding period, with dedicated keepers providing meticulous round-the-clock care to ensure their healthy development.

Inside the incubators, the tiny, fluffy creatures with their eyes still partially closed are receiving constant monitoring, as they have not yet passed the critical survival period.

Maintaining stable body temperature is one of the most crucial tasks for their keepers during the first few days of the cubs' life.

"This little tiger was born just three days ago. Newborn cubs often have unstable body temperatures, so we place them in incubators that maintain a constant temperature of around 28 degrees Celsius to help them reach a normal body temperature that usually ranges between 36.5 and 38 degrees Celsius," said Yang Zhongliang, a keeper at the Siberian Tiger Park.
