(23 Oct 2018) Three rare white Bengal tigers have been born at a safari-park in Crimea and were shown off by the park's owner on Tuesday. The Bengal cubs - two males and one female - are now a week old and are just starting to open their eyes. "Taigan" safari park owner, Oleg Zubkov, said when they were born they weighed just under a kilogramme and are now around triple that weight. Zubkov claims that the 12 white tigers in his park in Belogorsk make up a significant part of the global white Bengal tiger population. The park's first white tigers arrived in 2009, a gift from Ukrainian officials.
