Las Vegas · June 12, 2008 /PRNewswire/ — The Mirage today welcomed its newest addition to Siegfried & Roy's Secret Garden and Dolphin Habitat - six-week-old white, white-striped and golden tiger cubs. The public will get its first chance to see these rare and adorable cubs in a special nursery created for them in the Secret Garden Friday, June 13, 2008, which happens to be Siegfried's 69th birthday.
"We are delighted to welcome these cubs to their new home at the Secret Garden," said Scott Sibella, President of The Mirage. "They make a wonderful addition to Siegfried & Roy's animal family."
Roy said, "While we no longer perform nightly, our conservation efforts to save and care for these magnificent creatures are part of our daily life. These new cubs are a gift from the universe and it brings us great joy to share them with the world."
"I am honored that our tigers will go on exhibit for my birthday and just in time for Father's Day weekend," said Siegfried.

Wade, are these the ones born at Josip Marcan's at the end of April? Now if they come up with baby champagne lions about the same age, I can guess where those came from also.

Mary Ann,
What would give you that impression, that these were Josip's? These are cubs born at the Mirage. Tell Joe to find you glasses.
Wade
Wade, Joe is at work, and I am wearing my glasses. Where does it say that they were born at the Mirage?
Mary Ann
I took the "welcomed to the Mirage, six week old" to mean they were born else where as well. But I was thinking more along the lines of at their home or somewhere like that.
Mel from the Secret Garden told me that the cubs were born in Florida
