Barbary lion cubs on show to public

-

Five rare Barbary lion cubs have been shown to the public for the first time at a zoo in western Germany, delighting visitors as they paraded through their enclosure. The babies, females Jumina and Lin and males Baz, Chaka and Sab, were born two months ago, but could only be shown off at the Neuwied Zoo yesterday because their immune systems were not strong enough earlier. Barbary lions have been extinct in the wild for 100 years.
