As a result, after leopard, deer now the lioness gave birth to cubs in the middle of the night on Monday. The cubs are healthy and presently not on display as they are just born and under strict observation doctors and biologists. The lion couple is here for more than a year and is their first breeding.
This jungle safari is throbbing with tourists every day and the birth of cubs is definitely a big event. After 230 days of pregnancy, the lioness gave birth to cubs. It is not possible to know the sex of the cub for some time after the birth and they will be named after the zoologists have decided on their species at the right time.
