Lion Cub Bitten but Healing at Bever Park Zoo
A newborn male lion cub, weighing 214 pounds at birth, was bitten on the front left leg by a leopard reaching through a cage. The cub rests comfortably at a local animal hospital and is expected to be returned to parents Lou and Louise Lion this weekend. The cub will be bottle-fed until mother's milk dries up, and plans for its future include a potential trade for a female leopard from the zoo’s recent acquisition.
