September 4, 2015 (Alpine)--Bobbi Brink, Founder/Director of San Diego's Lions Tigers & Bears (LTB) sanctuary announced that a 2.5 month old tiger cub found roaming the Southern California neighborhood of Hemet is being transferred to the accredited sanctuary in East San Diego County on Friday afternoon.

California Fish & Wildlife officials contacted Brink Friday this afternoon, asking her to take in the 2.5 month old cub, in which Brink has agreed.
