  • 6 year old African Lion Sahar roars at curious human onlookers in Lincoln Park Zoo enclosure. Perhaps he calls out to his lost 18 y/o companion lioness who had to be put down recently due to old age.
    I would absolutely NOT want to come across this sound in the wild!

    I work at the zoo right outside the city and I must say that the enclosure Lincoln Park has for their lions and other animals are quite small. Disappointing that a zoo so loved by tourists treats their animals like guinea pigs in such tiny cages. Would love for them to expand their exhibits more.

      But the Kovler Lion House at Lincoln Park Zoo will soon undergo a huge renovation. These three lions - male Sahar and lionesses Kamali and Zalika - were recently moved to Rolling Hills Zoo in Salina, Kansas. I remember when these beautiful sisters Kamali and Zalika were born at the Oregon Zoo in 2013. Kamali is the one with the scarring on her left front leg.

  • @studentatsafari845
    @studentatsafari845 Před rokem

    As someone who studies animal care, that enclosure is way too small. Lions need lots of space to exhibit natural behaviours like chasing food, hiding, playing and sleeping. It’s a little unusual that this lion is roaring, but he’s showing a stereotypical behaviour which is pacing. Pacing normally occurs when an animal is an too small of an enclosure. The roaring is probably distress, but it could also be territorial since there is a lioness. This lion desperately needs a bigger enclosure otherwise it could suffer with psychological problems.

    How can it have a so big mane? South and oriental african lions don't have a so large mane.

    This is so sad, they don't belong in a zoo, they need to be sent to their natural habitat 😢

    You don't have to be a lion to understand that this animal is calling for help.
