The century-old Chamarajendra Zoological Gardens in Mysore has taken a major initiative to conserve the tiger population in the wake of drastic reduction in their numbers. It has started efforts to pair tigers for captive breeding.
Zoo authorities have paired nine-year-old Brahma with four-year-old Manya, a white tigress, to produce stronger and healthier cubs.
