Dallas Zoo Names Tiger Cub Rina After Ranger
25 Apr
Summary
- Sumatran tiger cub at Dallas Zoo named Rina via public vote.
- Name honors a ranger involved in conservation partnerships.
- Cubs Cirrus and Rina are now exploring their habitat.

The Dallas Zoo recently held a public vote to name its female Sumatran tiger cub, with the chosen name being Rina. This name was selected to honor a ranger who is part of the Sumatran Ranger Project, a conservation effort that the zoo actively partners with.
The cub's brother has already been named Cirrus by zoo staff. Both Rina and Cirrus have been observed exploring their habitat alongside their mother, Suzuki. While the zoo has not yet established a specific viewing schedule for the public, there is a possibility for visitors to catch glimpses of the young cubs as they continue to grow and become more adventurous in their environment.
