The moment you`ve all been waiting for!
Lion cubs Asali and Taraj made their public debut alongside mom, Zamaya, for the first time this morning. You can now witness their playful antics in African Adventure daily!
Please note, Zamaya and the cubs will continue to have access to their behind-the-scenes spaces during the day and may choose to spend time off-habitat. 
Cubs Asali and Taraj had some playtime outside in their private yard with mom Zamaya. They had a lot of fun and practiced their pounces on Zamaya
