Two of a kind - Sumatran Tiger Cubs @ Washington DC / US National Zoo

Follow me on FACEBOOK
There was a special preview of the cubs today, and I was lucky enough to be able to attend. :D

The three Sumatran Tiger Cubs are just 3 months and 1 day old, and their public debut is scheduled for Saturday September 2nd (10am-2pm).

Frances also made it to this event, so check out her pix too ;)
