‘Emotional’ caretakers mourn death of extremely rare 3-month-old white tiger cub

Mother of cub kept ‘calling out to find out where it went’ after it died

A zoo in India’s national capital has mourned the loss of a white tiger cub just three months after they welcomed it with two other siblings.

The cub died last week, days after it started showing signs of limping, said Akanksha Mahajan, the director of Delhi’s National Zoological Park.

It was born to a white tiger couple, seven-year-old tigress Sita and Vijay, earlier in September this year.
