Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Extremely rare white tiger cubs have been born at Tobu Zoo in Japan.
Although the cubs are too young to be separated from their mother and shown to the public the zoo has made sure that people know about the new additions with a multi-coloured sign saying 'The babies have been born!'.
White tigers are incredibly rare and it is estimated that there are only 200 remaining in the wild, therefore the news births have been celebrated.
The cubs have not been named as yet but the zoo is welcoming suggestions with a naming ceremony taking place next month.
