This is Ricky the four month old tiger. Cute kid. No fingers through the fence please.

Caption :: This is Nicky four months on. The female tiger cub, which was saved from the cooking pot in August ( inset), is now seven months old and weighs more than 20kg. Visitors to the Malacca Zoo can now see how the cub is doing during weekends. Nicky has been put on public display from 9am to 5pm on a trial basis since Dec 3. This is also part of the cub's familiarisation exercise until the zoo's tiger enclosure is ready early next year. The public will then be able to see Nicky on a permanent basis.
