MBtv: Quintuplet tiger cubs shown to public at South Korean zoo

Five Siberian tiger cubs, born on 27th June this year at a South Korean zoo, were shown to the public. The Siberian tigers (also known as ‘Korean tigers’ in South Korea) are listed as endangered species and protected by the government. A zookeeper at Everland theme park in Yongin says it’s ‘rare’ for five tiger cubs to be born at once. The cubs’ names — ‘Areum’, ‘Daun’, ‘Oori’, ‘Nara’, ‘Gangsan’ (which means ‘Our country’s beautiful landscape’ when read together) were selected by an online vote.
