:00:12. > :00:20.First then, there are just 400 Sumatran tigers left in the world,
:00:21. > :00:23.so when new cubs are born, they need special care and attention.
:00:24. > :00:27.But one zookeeper has gone to extreme lengths to keep this
:00:28. > :00:33.pair protected by taking them home to live with his family.
:00:34. > :00:48.And this is Spot and Stripe, two of the rarest tiger cubs in the world.
:00:49. > :00:51.Following their birth at Australia Zoo, Giles helped them to
:00:52. > :00:59.adapt to their new lives by taking them to live in his house.
:01:00. > :01:06.They are more adjusted and more rounded in terms of being around
:01:07. > :01:08.people. The best way for us to give us that start was to have them at

:01:19. > :01:24.that nearly 1,000 existed. But today that number
:01:25. > :01:35.has more than halved. Sumatran tigers are critically
:01:36. > :01:40.endangered. There is lots of pressure on them in the wild. The
:01:41. > :01:44.reason we have tigers in captivity is what we call an insurance
:01:45. > :01:46.population so that if they ever disappear in the wild they will not
:01:47. > :01:49.be totally extinct. Despite the serious message, the
:01:50. > :02:03.family have had lots of fun making Stripe is very independent and likes
:02:04. > :02:07.to spend time on his own. Spot, he likes spending time with you, he
:02:08. > :02:09.will actively come and seek you out and want to be near you and sit on
:02:10. > :02:10.you. The pair are now back at the zoo
:02:11. > :02:13.and almost fully grown. But Giles and the family hope their

:02:17. > :02:20.the most endangered big cats around. Next, Europe's most active
:02:21. > :02:23.volcano is erupting again. Boiling lava and ash has been
:02:24. > :02:27.spewing out of Mount Etna in Italy. The eruption started on Etna's

:03:21. > :03:39.the makers have released the design To travel in a car at nearly 1.5
:03:40. > :03:44.times the speed of sound, you need to get an engine from one of these.

:04:14. > :04:17.office. The rear half of the car is bolted on with the rocket engines. I
:04:18. > :04:24.will be sitting here controlling this. I am going to drive this car
:04:25. > :04:28.at 1000mph and I need to have confidence about every part of it.
