A baby tiger cub has been put down after he suffered a head injury when he took a tumble in an enclosure at Auckland Zoo on the weekend.
The cub born along with his sister almost a month ago, was previously healthy and had been getting more active and adventurous.
Despite the efforts of a specialist vet team including a neurologist, the cub couldnt be saved when his condition deteriorated.
Auckland Zoo Director, Kevin Buley speaks to Lisa Owen.
