..."It was amazing (click here) they were such a good pair. Kembali is an amazing male tiger, very impressed, and the cubs are going to be stunning."
Fewer than 400 of the creatures remain in the wild due to poachers and loss of habitat due to palm oil plantations....

Topeka - As the Topeka Zoo’s last breeding pair of Sumatran tigers (click here) prepares to travel to their new homes, the tiger habitat in the Capital City will be left bare, leaving room for a new breeding pair to make a home in 2023.
The Topeka Zoo says on Tuesday, Dec. 6, that it has reproduced the most critically endangered Sumatran tigers over the last decade and now is about to be tigerless. This week it said it will transfer its two remaining Sumatran Tiger residents to other zoos, which will leave the habitat empty. For a little while, at least.
As part of the Species Survival Plan breeding recommendation through the Association of Zoos and Aquariums, the Topeka Zoo said it received recommendations to move all of its critically endangered tigers to other zoos as part of a larger effort.
According to the Zoo, a new pair of tigers will now join the zoo later in December in hopes to establish another successful breeding pair.
