Tigers in Malacca Zoo

If you would like to see a real tiger in Malaysia, zoos would be the place to go to. If you are in Malacca, head on over to the Malacca Zoo where there are 27 tigers with 12 of them born in captivity.

The tiger shown here is Nicky, the tiger cub that was saved from a cooking pot in 2005 and ended up becoming a top breeder under the Wildlife and National Parks Department’s tiger-breeding (Perhilitan) programme at the Malacca Zoo. Under this programme, 84 tiger cubs have been successfully bred.
