The cubs are in addition to the 7 lions at the zoo bringing it to a new total of 9 lions!<\/p>\n

The UWEC Executive Director, Dr.James Musinguzi said the two clubs will be named either Emmanuel or Emmanuella according to their respective sexes.<\/p>\n

They live in prides of around 15 individuals.Groups consist of related females and their cubs, who are often born around the same time and raised communally.
