Louisville Mayor Craig Greenberg and the Louisville Zoo are thrilled to announce a daily viewing schedule for the Zoo’s nearly five-month-old female Amur tiger cubs. Frankie, Masha, and Mira can now be seen in their outdoor habitat daily from noon to 3 p.m.

While the noon to 3 p.m. window provides the highest likelihood of seeing the trio, the playful sisters are frequently in their new space outside viewing hours.
