A NEW male Sumatran tiger will be coming to Colwyn Bay as the Welsh Mountain Zoo looks to breed the animals for the very first time.
The zoo has two Sumatran tigers called Bryn and Kinnara, aged 17 and three.
Kinnara came to the zoo in November 2013 from Krefeld Zoo in Germany while Bryn has been there for many years.
Bryn is a non-breeding male, and there are plans to mate Kinnara later this year when a young male from London Zoo will be joining the enclosure.
Jamie Toffrey, marketing officer at the Welsh Mountain Zoo, said: “The Sumatran tiger is listed as critically endangered with less than 400 found in the wild.
“To support a breeding programme and nurture a family here at the zoo is an incredibly positive and exciting prospect.”
