Two Sumatran tiger cubs have become inseparable from two baby orang-utans after their respective mothers abandoned them.
The Sumatran Tiger is the smallest tiger of five types of tigers left in on the planet Earth. They have lived for over one million years in the tropical jungles of the island of Sumatra, Indonesia. The population of the Sumatran Tiger in the wild is in extreme danger and there are only about 400 to 500 individuals remaining.
Sumatran tiger cubs Nakal, Satu and Isha born to mother Binjai are "hers, not 'hers and ours'" says Mark Turner of Melbourne Zoo. http://www.wherelightmeetsdark.com
Deforestation and poaching in the Sumatran tiger's habitat is increasing and the Sumatran tiger will likely become extinct.
