London Zoo Welcomes First Lion Cubs in 10 Years!
Let's call these cubs Cute One and Cute Two — the 10-week-old babes were the first of their species born at the London Zoo in 10 years!
The girl and boy lions were born to Abi, a 10-year-old lioness, and Lucifer, a 6-year-old male, and are critically endangered Asian lions. Even though nearly all non-captive lions live in sub-Saharan Africa, there's one small population — probably between 200 and 300 — in India's Gir Forest.
All You Need Is Love: Dogs Nurse Lions and Tigers to Health
I thought we'd reached the epitome of adorable when I saw the photos of the dog that took in a pair of red pandas as her own, but this story might take the cake in the cute department. Two more pooches in China are helping to raise not only their own growing puppies, but a pair of lion cubs, and twin tiger cubs as well! Born earlier this month, the lion and tiger cubs were abandoned by their birth mother, and two hero dog mamas stepped in to help.
Lioness Kisses Her Blind Babies!
Can't you see your mama showering you with love? Well, while the cubs surely feel that tongue, their eyes won't open for about three weeks so the babies are technically blind. The four tiny ones were just born at Denmark's Aalborg Zoo and appeared to be pretty well protected by that watchful eye.
Awwwwfully Up Close and Personal With Two Lil Lions
It's another adoro lil big cat, this time a different species (Java's a leopard) but just as ready for that close-up. The four-week-old lion cub was born in Dortmund, Germany and there's actually a twin.
No joke but these two are already quite the soccer stars, perhaps in training for next year's World Cup and taking after another German animal we love to look at?
Baby Lion's Got No Name, So Let's Call Him Cute
What do you think this lion is saying? Helloooo everyone? No autographs, please?
There's Three Times the Cute With Three Berber Lion Cubs
Proud daddy, Owambo, and mom, Somali, welcomed these three cubs – aren't they precious?! The Berber lion babes are currently exploring their home at Vienna's Schoenbrunn Zoo and are getting bigger everyday.
Now, I'd never heard of this species, but found out that they've been extinct in the wild since 1922.
Cat and Lion Cub Are BFFs!
Adoro overload! Arnie the house cat and Zara the lion cub are totally in love! Zara was recently rescued from the Linton Zoo by zoo director Kim Simmons, after finding the young mother lioness was having trouble taking care of her.
Five Fun Zoo Cams to Keep You Occupied!
I looooove webcams, and I've got some time to kill before the Fourth of July fun gets started. If you're also sitting around waiting for the food to be grilled, now's a great time to check out some live zoo action. To be fair, I've included a variety of creatures as well as three cams with baby animals .
Adoro Baby Lion Gets Anthelmintic Therapy!
Yay, it's another beautiful baby lion, this one in Germany! The mother, Shaba, gave birth to the lil guy and two other cubs on April 20. The family currently lives in Osnabrueck, Germany and are being watched over at the zoo they call home.
Cute Alert: Lion Has Two Daddies
This isn't footage of Siegfried and Roy, nor is this made by Disney (as far as I can tell). It's footage of a lion who was raised as a cub by these two dudes and then was returned into the wild where he socialized with his pride and got on with life. Then his caretakers returned to visit.
