    I've been looking at the complete inventory for ZSL Whipsnade Zoo, because I'm going there soon, and I noticed that 3 Asian Lions are currently there.

    Are these lions from London and are staying at Whipsnade until 'Land of the Lions' is built? And also, are they currently on show at Whipsnade?
