both born in January 2010 and rescued in April. White lions are technically extinct in the wild and are not albinos, but rather a genetic rarity. They have been ruthlessly exploited and bred to produce victims for canned hunting.
Although Brutus had been surgically sterilized, five years prior, Nala gave birth to two female cubs in 2015. All four are living together in a very large area of the park.
I thought these lions looked a little off but I couldn’t figure out what it was. I guess I wasn’t certain you hadn’t processed them this color! It’s an absolutely stunning Composition and a fabulous photo FAV
@monikozi@koalagardens@domenicododaro The cubs are both white. Obviously the vet did not do the job properly, as these two have always been on their own in the park. All lions or couples have a fenced in part of the park so that they are on their own :-)
@ludwigsdiana interesting! I didn't think there would be males mingling with breeding females around. isn't it fab that the vet did not do the job well as the urge to breed needs to be fulfilled
