Three lion cubs were born on July 28 to Kaya, a 4-year-old lioness at Reid Park Zoo. The 5-week-old cubs underwent a routine health check Tuesday.
The cubs are named: Ayotunde, which means “joy has returned” in Yoruba; Azizi, which means “precious” in Swahili; and Abuto, which means “I have hidden” in Luo, sit still for a moment after their checkup. Azizi was named in honor of her “grandmother” at the Fort Worth Zoo, who died two weeks after Azizi was born.
The cubs will be on display to the public in about two weeks, after they have received their vaccinations.
