San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance is celebrating the birth of a Sumatran tiger cub at the San Diego Zoo Safari Park’s Tull Family Tiger Trail habitat. The cub was born August 23 to first-time mother Jillian. This birth is an important step in San Diego Zoo Wildlife Alliance’s ongoing work to conserve Sumatran tigers.
The trailblazing "Zoo Lady" worked alongside San Diego Zoo founder Dr. Harry Wegeforth, and her innovative ideas and dedication to wildlife care continue to inspire us today.
Sumatran tiger cubs Puteri and Hutan are much more than cute faces.

Neville, and all rhinos, will be the focus of attention on World Rhino Day, Sept. 22— a day to bring increased awareness of rhinos and the importance of conservation efforts to protect these iconic animals.
