Tigress gives birth to three healthy cubs in Ranthambore reserve
Jaipur, Dec. 2 -- State forest minister Sanjay Sharma on Monday confirmed that a tigress (T-2307) in Ranthambore Tiger Reserve recently gave birth to three healthy cubs.
Sharing a video collected from a camera trap, Sharma wrote: "Exciting news from Ranthambore National Park. T-2307 has been sighted with three cubs in the Berda area of the Kundera range. Heartiest wishes and congratulations to all the people of the state."
