Newborn Barbary Lion Cubs At Safari Park In Czech Republic
May 1, 2025, Dvur Kralove Nad Labem, Czech Republic: Quadruplets of Barbary lion cubs rest in their enclosure with their mother. The four Barbary lion cubs were born in January 2025 at Safari Park Dvùr Králové in the Czech Republic. The four cubs are gradually exploring the outdoor enclosure with their mother. They are getting used to visitors and the hustle and bustle of the zoo. The Barbary lion is an extinct form of the largest African predator, with the last recorded population in North Africa. In the wild, they lived up to 14 years. The Barbary lion has completely disappeared from the wild. In the past, this large subspecies of lion inhabited North Africa. It was there, in the menagerie of the Moroccan king, that dozens of lions survived, whose cubs were gradually distributed to zoological gardens.

FEATURE - Erstes Gürteltierbaby im Zoo von Washington in 116-jähriger Geschichte geboren
A rare southern three-banded armadillo baby was born recently at a Washington zoo, marking the first birth of a healthy pup in the zoo’s 116-year history.
Southern three-banded armadillos Vespa and Scooter welcomed a female pup into the world on October 30th, making them both first-time parents.
The pup is the first healthy armadillo pup born at Tacoma's Point Defiance Zoo & Aquarium since it first opened 116 years ago.
“She is healthy and the perfect little replica of her parents,” said the zoo’s head veterinarian Dr. Karen Wolf.
“We’re thrilled to welcome this pup into our animal family,” added assistant curator Maureen O’Keefe.
Keepers monitored mom Vespa’s behaviour around the clock leading up to the birth.
“Vespa was trained to allow us to give her voluntary ultrasounds throughout her pregnancy,” said O’Keefe. “She’d even let us feel her belly without curling up in a ball, allowing us to give her the care she needed.”
For two days following the birth, keepers observed mom and pup 24/7 to ensure the pup was getting necessary nourishment from Vespa.
“Vespa is a natural at parenting and caring for her pup,” said O’Keefe.
The 2-week-old pup is beginning to open her eyes and will remain behind-the-scenes in the Wild Wonders Outdoor Theatre area of the zoo while she nurses and bonds with her mother. Mother and pup will be viewable by zoo guests during Close Encounters once the pup is old enough.
The pup’s birth is the result of a breeding recommendation for Scooter and Vespa by the Association of Zoos & Aquariums’ Species Survival Plan® (SSP) for Southern three-banded armadillos. The SSP looks at the genetic makeup of each prospective parent before recommending a pairing; this helps ensure diversity of armadillos in North American zoos.
Southern three-banded armadillos are native to the southern interior of South America. They are listed as Near Threatened by the International Union for Conservation of Nature. Prima

FEATURE - Zwillinge von Tasmanischen Teufeln in australischem Zoo geboren
Conservation organisation Aussie Ark, alongside the Australian Reptile Park have been very busy with their newest bundles of joy – twin brother Tasmanian devils.
The young joeys are yet to be named, and keepers at Aussie Ark and the Australian Reptile Park are calling on the public to help give them their new monikers. Every person who adopts a Tasmanian devil from Aussie Ark in the next month, until September 20th, will be in the running to not only name the devil joeys but to also meet the newest arrivals at the Australian Reptile Park.
These young joeys were born at Aussie Ark as part of the organisation’s insurance population for the endangered Tasmanian devil. The joeys are calling the Australian Reptile Park home for now and are being hand raised by Keeper Hewin Hochkins.
“I’m lacking a little sleep at the moment, feeding these guys every few hours is hard work, but I wouldn’t change a thing!” said mammals Keeper Hewin Hochkins. “They’re already showing off their personalities and I’m excited to watch them grow”
Hand-raising Tasmanian devils is no easy task. They require round the clock care, warm snuggles and bottle feeds around four to five times a day, including a feed at 4:00am. The duo will be hand raised by Keeper Hewin for the next eight months until they are independent enough to re-join their family at Aussie Ark. For now, they are residing at the Australian Reptile Park, where they will become ambassadors for their species - an important role for the youngsters.
“Tasmanian devils are one of the most iconic native species Australia has, they’re feisty, rambunctious and play a critical role in Australian ecosystems” Aussie Ark President and Australian Reptile Park Director Tim Faulkner said.
Mr Faulkner continued, “90% of the wild Tasmanian devil population has disappeared due to devil facial tumour disease. The Aussie Ark breeding program is creating a long-term future for this species, these youngsters are now

“I’m lacking a little sleep at the moment, feeding these guys every few hours is hard work, but I wouldn’t change a thing!” said mammals Keeper Hewin Hochkins. “They’re already showing off their personalities and I’m excited to watch them grow”
Hand-raising Tasmanian devils is no easy task. They require round the clock care, warm snuggles and bottle feeds around four to five times a day, including a feed at 4:00am. The duo will be hand raised by Keeper Hewin for the next eight months until they are independent enough to re-join their family at Aussie Ark. For now, they are residing at the Australian Reptile Park, where they will become ambassadors for their species - an important role for the youngsters.
“Tasmanian devils are one of the most iconic native species Australia has, they’re feisty, rambunctious and play a critical role in Australian ecosystems” Aussie Ark President and Australian Reptile Park Director Tim Faulkner said.
Mr Faulkner continued, “90% of the wild Tasmanian devil population has disappeared due to devil facial tumour disease. The Aussie Ark breeding program is creating a long-term future for this species, these youngsters are now

Conservation organisation Aussie Ark, alongside the Australian Reptile Park have been very busy with their newest bundles of joy – twin brother Tasmanian devils.
The young joeys are yet to be named, and keepers at Aussie Ark and the Australian Reptile Park are calling on the public to help give them their new monikers. Every person who adopts a Tasmanian devil from Aussie Ark in the next month, until September 20th, will be in the running to not only name the devil joeys but to also meet the newest arrivals at the Australian Reptile Park.

The Australian Reptile Park’s koala conservation breeding program has had another amazing year with the announcement of six joeys being bred this season.
The first koala joey to emerge from the pouch this season “Tippi” is the eldest of six confirmed joeys this year and had her first health check this week.
Tippi came in at 357 grams and is showing all the signs of great health with her eating leaf, showing incredible dexterity with her climbing and all her physical characteristics in top condition. So tiny she had to be weighed in a salad bowl, the adorable koala joey was offered a toy koala to cuddle during the weighing to mimic her mum “Tree” to make the occasion as stress-free as possible. She even allowed the Australian Reptile Park resident koala whisperer Hayley Shute a chance to cuddle up to the cute joey and offer up some belly scratches – which Tippi LOVED!
Not only does Tippi and the other five joeys contribute to the Australian Reptile Park’s koala conservation breeding program, but it holds a great significance to keepers who have been striving to ensure the koalas are reproducing and increasing numbers at a crucial time where every joey born matters. Every year is more important as the koala population is still recovering after the devastating 2019-2020 bushfire season.
Australian Reptile Park Director, Tim Faulkner, said, “Is there anything cuter than koala joeys?! We are so pleased to announce that our breeding program had another successful year to help this threatened species. And what an important time for good news like this, both with COVID rearing its head again in Sydney and the species facing serious peril in the wild.”
Mr Faulkner continued, “It’s becoming clear all over the world that koalas in Australia are under serious threat. Their habitat is disappearing at an unprecedented rate and the species really took an astronomical hit during the 2019-
