Sumatran Tiger Cubs

January 05, 2014  •  Leave a Comment

On August 5, 2013, the Sumatran tiger Damai gave birth to two tiger cubs at the National Zoo. Bandar and Sukacita (SOO-kah-CHEE-tah) were on display for the first time on November 18. I was eager to shoot them playing around in the yard and got out there shortly after their debut.
