Bhubaneswar: After being abandoned by its mother, one of the three tiger cubs, who were born on March 11 at Nandankanan Zoological Park in Bhubaneswar, died on Monday.
According to reports, the male white cub, which died, was born to tigress Rupa, who had become a mother for the first time, and to tiger Rajesh.
The three cubs, including the one which died today, were being fed reconstituted milk as a supplement, reports said.
