According to information from Wednesday, the female baby animal is named “Mikita”. According to a broadcast by mother “Thalié”, it is cared for and also fed with kitten milk five times a day by the staff. For the two zoo owners Rainer Zöchling and Herbert Eder, the birth of “Mikita” came as a complete surprise, it was emphasized.
The tiger baby was born on April 9th. Zöchling and Eder “couldn’t believe their eyes when early in the morning there was a small white fur whelp weighing only one kilogram in the straw,” the broadcast said. “Usually, tigers usually have multiple births. We didn’t expect an ‘only child’,” emphasized Eder.
“Mikita” can now be admired and photographed by animal lovers twice per opening day from the weekend – at 11 a.m. and 3.30 p.m. The “White Zoo” and the camel theater in Kernhof near St. Aegyd am Neuwalde can be visited from Wednesday to Sunday from 10 a.m. In addition to the baby Bengal tiger, you can also see anteaters, snow leopards and white coatis.
