Would You Like To Watch Four Lion Cubs Learn To Swim?
I don’t see why anyone would not. Last week at the Smithsonian National Zoo in Washington D.C., zookeepers dropped four eight-week-old baby lions into a pool to make sure they’d be safe and comfortable when they’re moved to the pen where they’ll live, which is surrounded by a nine-foot moat. Everything seems to have worked out fine. And since the cubs have apparently yet to be named — they are identified in the Smithsonian’s video only as “First Cub,” “Second Cub,” etc. — I have decided to name them based on their performances.
First Cub (female) = Drippy
Second Cub (female) = Soggy
Third Cub (Male) = Whiney
Fourth Cub (Female) = Michaela Phelps
