ATLANTA — Move over, Bronx Zoo cobra.

The newest critter on Twitter is a Sumatran tiger at Zoo Atlanta. The zoo has launched an account on the popular social media site for 7-year-old tiger Chelsea, who gave birth to two cubs July 5.

The tweets will chronicle the adventures of the first tigers born at Zoo Atlanta in more than a decade. Experts estimate there are less than 400 Sumatran tigers left in the wild.
