Four-month-old Sumatran tiger cubs are finally on exhibit at the San Diego Zoo’s Wild Animal Park -- Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sundays, 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

The Sumatrans are listed as endangered by the International Union for Conservation of Nature, with only 300 to 400 left in the wild on the island of Sumatra. There are more in ‘managed care’ -- about 350.
