Incredibly rare white tiger born in Omaha Zoo



An extremely rare white lion cub has been born in a zoo in central USA.

The cub, which has not yet been given a name, was born in Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo and Aquarium on as part of a litter of three, born on the 21 November.

The mother Ahadi, who is six years old, gave birth for the first time to two males and one female last week.

The cub’s father Mr Big is currently being kept away from the rest of the group, as those at the zoo believe it is unlikely that the cub’s mother would allow him to be near the newborns.

The headline says rare white tiger, but in fact the cub is a lion.
