DREAMWORLD has celebrated a very special birthday as tigers Adira and Akasha turned three last week.

The sisters joined Dreamworld’s tiger family in November 2015, and were first introduced to the public at just six weeks old.

Though they then weighed only 5kg, they now tip the scales at a whopping 125kg each.
