Four Lion Cubs Born In Norway
At the Kristiansand Dyrepark (Zoo) the lioness Sera is the proud mother of four cubs born on Saturday morning, the first ever lion birth in Norway.
First reports had the number at three, but on Sunday a fourth came into view.

I’ve been watching the last 48 hours.
There is a routine: Sleep ... wash the kiddies ... the babies eat ... sleep [repeat]
All day.
When the wake up they are so cute.

One or two little babies stay up and eat while everyone else sleeps. :)
They were born Memorial Day weekend ... 2 weeks ago.
To: BunnySlippers
They look good. I will check it throughout the next couple of days.

Mom’s name is “Sera”.
They are the first lions ever born in Norway.
To: BunnySlippers
Mom is pooped. I saw some movement of two kittens. One was feeding.

Haha .. I have tried to do that too. She is up now.
But, as the quintessential kitty, she sleeps a lot. :)

I’ve still only seen 3 cubs...

OMG!! There are people in the cage. Looks like they are weighing each of the babies in a bucket and recording it. They are meowing. :)
To: BunnySlippers
Where's mom?

Getting their checkup...

I use the screen capture in Paint Shop Pro.

I’m sure they’ll let Mom back in the cage in minutes.
Do dangerous to weigh the kitties with her there. :)
To: Hyzenthlay
They just moved the camera closer!
To: raybbr
Thanks for the screen caps. I missed the real thing.
Now it looks like the little ones are looking for mama. She's not back in yet.

They are getting bigger.
I noticed that with my chihuahua Fidel. He went from 15 ounces up to 5 pounds in no time!
To: BunnySlippers
Feeding time! They are so cute!
I love when she licking one of them and then makes that, "EWWWWW" face!

We’re having a lot of fun watching the cubs. Mom really does take good care of them.
Soon they’ll be playing and leaping at each other to exercise their muscles. Can’t wait to watch them.
Thanks, BS, for this treat.
