A few days ago, four white tiger cubs made their public debut at a zoo in Japan.

The cubs, which are merely a month and a half old, really succeeded in getting the public's attention. Thus, visitors to the zoo waited in line for hours just to catch one quick glimpse of them.

According to Daily Mail, the cubs' mother is a 7-year-old tigress named Karla.

Although they are still feeding on their mother's milk, the one female and the three male cubs are beginning to also manifest some interest towards meat.

“Seeing such small babies, I became very happy. And when I saw three of the baby tigers playing and their mother watching over them from nearby I thought, what a nice family,” a visitor to the zoo told members of the press.
