Abu & Simba, our Lions, are enjoying their large enclosure area very much! Yesterday we went in the enclosure with them to give them some exercise and interaction. Oh boy are they a handful! These boys are full of energy and never run out of batteries! Lions, especially males are usually very lazy, but not these lions! The minute we walked into their enclosure they immediate started to run up to us, and were jumping, diving, rolling, you name it. We love to see the energy they show us because we truly know they are happy. Abu and Simba still have a lot of growing to do, and we can’t wait for their manes to come in! If you would like to see more photos of Abu & Simba as they’ve grown up, then please visit their gallery.

As we previously blogged before, we just finished building a beautiful new enclosure for our Lions here at The Zoological Wildlife Foundation. We would like to thank Amber & Duane, as well as Candy and Sean Patel for contributing to the making of this enclosure. They truly made our lions lives that much more enjoyable by creating this wonderful large enclosure for them to live in. All of us here at ZWF truly thank you all for your helping hand in this! We really appreciate your concern and care for these animals. Thank you once again to Sean & Candy Patel, and Amber & Duane!

Here is a quick video clip of our two Lions, playing with Nabha, our Snow Tiger in their newly built enclosure! This is only a small video clip, but you can tell that they really are enjoying themselves in here. Why not stop by for a tour and check out the new enclosure up close. Please visit our Tours Page for more info. Check out the video clip in the link below.

Lions Playing in Their New Enclosure At ZWF!

We recently finished building a brand new enclosure for our Lions “Abu & Simba”. Abu & Simba shared their old enclosure with our Snow Tiger “Nabha”. Well, between the three of them, they definitely outgrew that cage! We are still not fully done with the cage, as it needs some more work and additional modifications to it, but it looks like all three of the cats are sure enjoying the enclosure as is. They haven’t stopped running with all the new space they have! We will post a video up soon too, so keep checking back! To view more photos of Abu & Simba, then Visit Abu & Simba’s Gallery, or to view more photos of Nabha the tiger then visit Nabha’s Gallery.

If you remember, Nabha was an unexpected Tiger Cub that was born here at the Zoological Wildlife Foundation! Nabha has grown incredibly, and today she was taken out for outdoor interaction. Nabha enjoys her days playing and living with our two Lion Cubs (Simba & Abu). To view more photos of Nabha, then visit Nabha’s Gallery.

ZWF was at the MardiGras Casino every Wednesday of this month (September). Yesterday was our last day there, and of course we had to leave with a bang! We brought both of our Lion Cubs, Abu & Simba, to the Casino for their photo sessions. Everyone absolutely loved the cubs!  Overall we brought Nabha our Tiger Cub, Raven our Alaskan Tundra Wolf, Nigel our Crocodile, Marley our White-handed Gibbon Ape, Donna our Tufted Capuchin, and Abu & Simba our Lion Cubs! If you’d like to know more about the services we offer or want our wildlife at your next event, then visit our animal rental section. To view the rest of the photos from this event then visit the MardiGras Casino Gallery.

Here we have our two lion cubs Abu & Simba, being normal lions and sleeping! These are the two Kings of ZWF and they were taking their daily naps in our Monkey Nursery today. They have grown quite a bit and if you would like to see how much they have grown since they arrived, then check out Abu & Simba’s Gallery to view their past and present photos! Abu & Simba can be visited and played with as part of a private tour package here at ZWF if you would like to view more information about that, then visit our tours page.

Now isn’t this an odd animal pair! Here we have one of our lion cubs, playing with our baby mini dachshund! They play together most of the day, both of the lion cubs and our little dachshund. It’s nice to see different animal species getting along together! Although they play together for now, it should be known that when the cubs grow a little larger, unfortunately they will not be able to play together anymore, but in the meantime its a very cute thing to see! To view more photos of our lion cubs then visit Abu & Simba’s Gallery. If you’d like to see them in person, then wny not take a private tour at our facility!? We do tours by appointment only and you can view our different packages on our tours page.

On the 20th of August, The Zoological Wildlife Foundation was part of a wonderful “Quince” celebration at Jungle Island. We brought our two Lion Cubs and our Gibbon Ape (Marley) dressed in a Tux! The party was very nice and everyone enjoyed themselves and got a chance to take a photo with our cubs and Marley. The birthday girl also made her way into the ballroom holding our lion cub as her entrance to her party. Marley was also held in the entrance as well. If you’d like to rent an animal for your next event, then please go to our animal rentals page for more info. To view more photos from the event then please visit the Quince at Jungle Island Gallery. We also have a quick video clip of the party as well as some photos of our animals and handlers that attended! Check out the video here
