A Sumatran tiger gave birth to two cubs Monday at the Smithsonian National Zoological Park in Washington, D.C. 

Sumatran Tigers are considered critically endangered, with fewer than 500 left in the wild and less than 70 in zoos in North America.

The cubs won't be out for public view for a while, but you can watch them on the Smithsonian ZooCam online.
