    The new lions from Denmark are now on-display. They have been named Sadiki and Jelani. From their social media:

    "After completing their quarantine period, our two new Lions have moved into their habitat and have also been named! We are pleased to announce that the brothers will be named Jelani (Great/Powerful) and Sadiki (Loyal). Jelani and Sadiki have spent the morning exploring their new home and a few lucky visitors have already been able to see the brothers from our Lion Deck. The brothers will have access to both their dens and habitat while they settle in – so we ask visitors to be patient if you can’t see them straight away."
