White Lion Cubs at Toronto Zoo! - Catherine - 10-03-2015 We have three white lions at the Toronto Zoo, a male and two females. They are beautiful and it has been fun watching them grow up. It seems we have more fun in store for us. Makali has given birth to four cubs. They look pretty lively for tiny little lions and what big voices they have. I can't wait to see them. This is a copy of the press release. Quote:Toronto, ON (Friday, October 2, 2015) The Toronto Zoo would like to announce that Makali, a four year old female white lion gave birth to four cubs; two cubs on Saturday, September 26, 2015 and two cubs on Sunday, September 27, 2015. RE: White Lion Cubs at Toronto Zoo! - Cibach - 10-04-2015 What a lovely sight and they are LOUD too. Here's wishing them all the luck they need and a long healthy life. RE: White Lion Cubs at Toronto Zoo! - Ruth - 10-05-2015 I hope the Lions will persevere. I didn't know they were being poisoned. Humans are robbing the earth of many animals now a days and it's pretty sad. RE: White Lion Cubs at Toronto Zoo! - Catherine - 10-05-2015 The white lions are pretty rare. They only occur in a small part of Africa. The Three Lions that came to Toronto Zoo are part of a conservation program. Having four more born is a major success. At least the ones in zoos right now are safe. When we stop the madness of destroying animals they or their off spring could be returned to the wild. They are so cute aren't they and for little guys, they are quite loud. No doubt I will be able to see them in a month or two. RE: White Lion Cubs at Toronto Zoo! - Ruth - 10-05-2015 That will be nice when you get to see them. Say hi for me. lol. RE: White Lion Cubs at Toronto Zoo! - Catherine - 10-05-2015 With luck I will be able to get good pictures. Right now they must look like white balls of fluff. They were hoping the lions would breed. It was a good decision to bring them to Toronto. These babies can go to other sanctuaries and spread the white lion population out. I can't wait to see them. RE: White Lion Cubs at Toronto Zoo! - Ruth - 10-06-2015 Yeah, that's good!! RE: White Lion Cubs at Toronto Zoo! - Catherine - 10-06-2015 I will keep checking the zoo website for more pictures too. RE: White Lion Cubs at Toronto Zoo! - Tobi - 10-10-2015 Aren't they a lovely little family? The Toronto Zoo is doing some wonderful work. Zoos like Toronto are such a far cry from zoos when I was a little girl. RE: White Lion Cubs at Toronto Zoo! - Catherine - 10-10-2015 The Toronto Zoo was built as a conservation site. There are hundreds of acres of natural woods and frog ponds. The buildings and outdoor exhibits are nestled among the trees. This is the zoo many forward thinking people dreamed about building and in this case they built it. It is a real educational site too. |
