Knowsley Safari’s five-month-old Amur tiger cubs, Akira and Ozo, have been enjoying their very first snow day.

Carnivores Team Manager at Knowsley Safari, Pete Johnson, says: “It’s wonderful to see Akira and Ozo rapidly growing in confidence and natural curiosity, they are loving every second of playing in the snow, under mum Yuki’s watchful eye, of course!"

They weren't the only ones enjoying the winter weather, with deer, bushdogs, yaks, and camels having fun in the frost.

Check out these adorable pictures below.
