| Arjuena the Barbary Lion |
Today we are featuring the Lions of the park! There are 6 lions on the grounds, all of which will serve a great display as our trainers teach about them. Above is Arjuena, a Barbary Lion, of which have been extinct in the wild since 1922. The last known wild Barbary Lion was shot in the Atlas Mountains. Lions sleep 20 hours a day and hunt or scavenge for food the other 4 hours of the day. Their roar is a 5 mile roar, one when Arjuena roars can be heard for several miles. When we have a tram or tours, he will roar and the whole tour will stop and listen as his roar is breathtaking and the splendor of the power invoked with a roar is captivating!!

| Leo the 2 year old African Lion |
Leo the Lion is from Africa and you can see his mane just starting to grow. It will take him 7 years to grow his mane in fully. If you were to neuter a lion, his mane would quit growing. The necessity of nature supersedes the procedure. Leo will be on display today as our trainers are ready to show him off!!
