Baby Lion Born at Jacksonville Zoo

by Holy Cuteness on July 12, 2012

On June 30th this beautiful female lion cub was born at Jacksonville Zoo and Gardens to mother Tamu and father Mshoni. The little cub is being hand-raised by zookeepers as mom has so little maternal experience that she is unable to adequately nurse the newborn.

Its the first surviving lion birth at Jacksonville Zoo since 1974.
