Let’s check out what’s new this week on Tiger Tuesdays.

It’s time for another update! Disney brings us along every week to see Basko’s interactions with Mom and celebrate his developmental milestones.

Just last week, the tiger cub was getting ready to swim! The Animal Care team installed a small swimming pool in Bakso’s environment to slowly encourage the tiger cub to get comfortable, but no swimming yet!
This week, Bakso continues ongoing training with mom, Sohni!
The Latest Tiger Tuesday Update
One of the most essential parts of Bakso’s growth is his developmental progress and his ongoing training with mom, Sohni. This is an important factor in supporting his health and well-being.

He is still a little hesitant about some of the more complex tasks, but his training has been instrumental in building trust with his animal keepers and preparing him to participate in routine care. Positive reinforcement is key during this stage of the training process.

Bakso is growing steadily, and so is his training. He isn’t quite ready for swimming and other significant steps but is enjoying plenty of playtime and fun with hay, logs, and time out in the sideyard. Sohni can also be seen joining in on the fun.
