Mum Aysa, 3, and her cubs Emi, Santa and Teddi are happy in the Yorkshire Wildlife Park. As you remember they were rescued from Ukraine.
Aysa
It’s wonderful to lie on the green grass and enjoy the warm sun rays.
Even a big stone will do! 🙂
I can’t read their minds but I guess they are still wondering if this is true. The family has finally found a good permanent home.
When you feel safe you can allow yourself a nice nap.
Lazy, hazy Summer days are simply wonderful!
The warm weather makes even a big lion boy feel sleepy. :–)
Teddi is a gorgeous lion with many facial expressions. 🙂
Is he yawning or laughing …. 🙂
I’m sure everybody’s heart is singing watching Pat’s photos of this sweet family.
We have adopted them in our hearts!
Dear Pat,
Thank you very much for the great photos of the rescued lions.
They are obviously doing well and hopefully they can quickly forget the terrible time during the war in Ukraine!
Best regards

Trotz unerfreulicher Begleitumstände haben
es die Löwen jetzt sicher gut getroffen !
Bleibt zu hoffen, dass der unselige Krieg,
der so viele Tiere & Menschen umbrachte,
bald irgendwie beendet werden kann… 🙁
Dear Pat!
Thank you for this delightful update from the YWP.
After their dramatic rescue and strenuous quarantine, the lion family has apparently recovered well and is now enjoying life. That makes me very happy!
They all look great and I particularly like the young male lion.
I wish them health, happiness and well-being for the future!
Hugs

Dear Pat!
The lion family looks relaxed. They have a wonderful enclosure.

Thank you very much dear Pat and Mervi.

Dear Pat, they seem to be a happy little family and very relaxed.
