The public may be able to catch a glimpse of four rare, newly-named tiger cubs at Longleat safari park.
The quartet of female Amur tiger cubs were born in Wiltshire five months ago and have now been named following a public vote.
There are estimated to be just 450 Amur tigers left in the world and big cat is listed as endangered.
The cubs have been named Dora-boo, the “princess of the group”, Ginger Biscuit, whose name is linked to the colouring of the cubs’ dad, and Heidi and Seeka, who are often found together exploring.

She said: “They really are all growing in confidence and we, with mum, are increasing the hours they are in the drive-through Safari every day.
“Guests can see them in the safari or from the safari when they are in their paddock; when Yana thinks they have had enough she leads them back into the house and we are very much being led by her.
“We have all been so delighted by the response to not just their arrival but also the voting on their new names… and would like to thank everyone for their support.”
