Baby Lion Cubs At Omaha Zoo Play All Day Long

Three playful African lion cubs - considered a "vulnerable" species by the International Union for Conservation of Nature - were born recently at a Nebraska zoo to first-time mother Ahadi, 6.

The Species Survival Plan of the Association of Zoos & Aquariums recommended Omaha's Henry Doorly Zoo to breed Ahadi with the cubs' father, 15-year-old Mr. Big, as part of a nationwide effort to breed lions of known lineage, reported Zoo Borns.
