Quintuplet Bengal tiger cubs met the public for the first time on Friday at Chimelong Safari Park in Guangzhou, Guangdong province. It was international protection day for rare animals. 

The five were born during the Spring Festival holiday at the safari park and the biggest weighed 1.3 kilograms.

Usually, a Bengal tiger mother gives birth to two or three cubs, so five is unusual, an expert at the safari park said.
