One tiger gives a small yelp as the other practices biting. NORFOLK, ENGLAND, UK. MEDIA DRUM WORLD +44 (0) 333 321 1546 Tiniest Tiger Fight UK By Aimee Braniff Cree **EXCLUSIVE** FURRR-OCIOUS images of four month old rare amur tiger cubs have been captured in a Norfolk zoo. One image shows the brother and sister standing on their tiny hind legs holding onto each other for balance in the throws of battle. In another image mum places a paw on her cubs back a wasted attempt to subdue them. A comical image shows the female cub slapping her brother in the face before he bonks her on the head with a heavy paw. These images were captured by amateur photographer Tom Jones (31) from Colchester England. Tom captured the images of the sibling cubs Luka (male) and Kira (female) at Banham Zoo, in Norfolk on his Canon 6D MkII. ?Having heard Banham Zoo had seen the arrival of two rare amur tiger cubs my partner and I ventured out there for the day with our cameras in hopes of catching a glimpse of them,? said Tom. ?On this day it was evident the cubs were full of energy, chasing each other around, winding up their parents. ?In this sequence Luka the male cub was chasing Kira and practising his takedown skills, or lack off at that age. ?Being able to capture photos of cubs learning the ways of a tiger and growing up is fascinating. ?To see them as such small fluffy and cute little things and knowing that they will grow into apex predators like their parents is quite surreal. ? It is always amazing, having the opportunity to witness those moments let alone capture them is an experience you can't forget. ?Some of the shots of them jumping up at each other always make me smile, like an overly dramatic hug attempt. ?Coming home having caught shots like this is always rewarding, cubs are only that small for so long, so standing out in the wind and rain is always worth it when you
