New London Zoo triplet tiger cubs in 'rude health'

Six months after a rare tiger cub died, London Zoo's new triplet cubs have been given a clean bill of health.

The Sumatran tigers born in February were examined, sexed, vaccinated and micro-chipped.

They were born in February to five-year-old Sumatran tigress Melati whose last cub - the first tiger to be born at London Zoo in 17 years - was found drowned aged four weeks.

Nic Masters, head vet at London Zoo, said they were in "rude health".
