White lion cub born at Omaha Zoo

White lions are so rare that this is almost a baby boom. He is a cute little fellow. The zoo must be really happy to have a white baby in the litter.

We have white lions at Toronto Zoo(a male and two females). The big white mane is amazing.

Isn't the big male splendid? And the sweet little white cub.
I just love the "mass cuddle-up to mum and drink milk" picture!

He is a little sweetheart. The white lions are so beautiful. Lions are majestic, but the white ones are almost mysterious. Can you imagine seeing one at night? In the moonlight, it would look like a ghost lion.

I hope we have our own white lion babies here in Toronto. I would so like to see one up close.

Well isn't he a sweetie.
A ghostly name for him would be good. Something African or in the local tongue from where he's born.

All I can think of is Snow or Vanilla. I don't think that is quite the right type of name for a white lion. They will probably have a naming contest. The naming contests are good, but we ended up with a Polar Bear called Humphrey, so they can backfire.
