The Everland theme park has announced the names of five tiger cubs born to a family of Siberian tigers, a class one endangered species protected by the government. 

After a survey of some four-thousand customers, Everland has selected Ah-reum, Da-woon, Woo-ri, Na-ra and Gang-san, which translates to "South Korea's beautiful landscape" when put together. 

The five cubs, two males and three females, each weighed one kilogram when they were born in June, have grown to weigh ten kilograms. They appeared in public for the first time on Thursday.

Giving natural birth to five cubs is extremely rare for Siberian tigers, which are also known as Korean tigers, as they're known to deliver only two or three cubs at a time.
