WATCH: Disney World Debuts 2 Sumatran Tiger Cubs

Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom in Florida has two new additions to their Sumatran tiger enclosure: four-month-old cubs Jeda and Anala.


The cubs, born in August, made their first public appearance last week, much to the delight of park visitors. It's thought that less than 500 of the endangered tigers are left in the world, and Disney is part of a program to help ensure that the tiger population continues to grow.

In a blog post, Director of Animal & Science Operations, Scott Terrell, said:

"Disney is proud to play an important role in the worldwide conservation and understanding of Sumatran tigers, a critically endangered species whose worldwide population has grown by two with the birth of Anala and Jeda. As part of these efforts, Disney participates in the Species Survival Plan, a breeding program through the Association of Zoos and Aquariums which helps ensure a diverse, healthy population of threatened and endangered species for years to come."

The park spent three years preparing for the births of the tiger cubs, which are a first for the Walt Disney World Resort.

And it was definitely well worth the wait. Apparently Jeda, a male, takes after his laid-back father, while Anala has the feisty, adventurous personality of her mother, Sohni.

If you need video evidence, just take a look at some of the adorable footage shared by Disney on Twitter:

ABC, which is owned by Disney, also shared the happy news on Twitter:

Other unofficial Disney accounts also shared the happy news of the newest additions to the Maharaja Jungle Trek:

For the lucky park guests who happened to be there when the cubs were out and about, some were able to capture videos and pictures of the little family, which they happily shared with the Twitterverse:

Naturally, Twitter was immediately smitten:

Looks like it's time to book our tickets!

Gavin Newsom Just Epically Trolled JD Vance Over Tariffs With An AI Video About Couches

California Governor Gavin Newsom mocked Vice President JD Vance—and his love of couches—with an AI-generated video to troll him over the rising costs of goods due to President Donald Trump's retaliatory tariffs.

Earlier this week, Trump announced new tariffs: 10% on softwood timber and lumber, and 25% on “certain upholstered wooden products,” set to take effect October 14. The move follows Trump’s announcement last week of additional tariffs on kitchen cabinets, vanities, and other upholstered products, which will take effect October 1.

College Announcer Apologizes After Sparking Outrage With Body-Shaming Comment About Plus-Size Dance Team

In the United States, there are 107 Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs)—schools founded when segregation laws and racist policies kept Black men and women from higher education. The schools developed their own unique culture and customs around stepping, marching band, drum majors, and majorettes.

HBCU majorettes march with the band, dance, and have stand battles during games. The dance style and moves are unique to Black culture, but have spread beyond the HBCUs to high schools and dance schools across the country.
