Delhi Zoo Celebrates Birth of Six Bengal Tiger Cubs
A family of tigers at the Delhi Zoo got a whole lot bigger!
A tigress named Aditi had six new cubs.
The zoo is keeping a close eye on them, especially in the beginning.
Aditi came from another place called Gorewada.
This is Aditi's first time having babies, after some tries to have cubs didn't work.
The cubs' father is Vijay, a white tiger.
Before this, the zoo has had some other cubs, with one born in 2023.
