This is the moment when five adorable Bengal tiger cubs charm their fans as they go on show in a Chinese wildlife zoo.
The month-old cubs had been moved to the Lehe Ledu Animal Theme Park in Chongqing, south-western China after they were abandoned by their mother.
Keepers let fans get a close look at the cubs when they allowed them to leave their enclosure for the first time on 31st May.
Some young visitors looked wary, but then as the cubs rolled around playing with their keepers they charmed wildlife enthusiasts.
The cubs had previously spent several weeks in the park’s breeding and rescue centre for hand feeding after their mum rejected them, reports local media.
Five is a very large number for a litter of big cats and it is believed their natural mum might have been overwhelmed by feeding them.
Keepers prepare a natural milk substitute packed with vitamins A and D and will not introduce solids to their diet for another four weeks.
The park is known in China for its conservation efforts and work with tiger welfare.
