Rare white lion cubs born in Germany

Image...
Schloss Holte-Stukenbrock, Germany, July 14, 2008—Three rare white lion cubs make their public debut at a wildlife park in north-central Germany.

The cubs are among of seven white lions born to two different mothers on June 30 in what park staff called a "giant surprise."

Despite their unusual look, white lions are actually African lions. A recessive gene causes their snowy white coats. About 30 white lions live in captivity worldwide.

    Are they "natural"? Albino Whale, Albino elephant, Albino Lion!? They will be ashamed if they would be in Africa. :)

    These cubs are beautiful and i hope they get treated like the royalty that they are. It should be against the law to be that cute. ROAR!

    They look like particularly butch house cats! They'll look amazing when they're fully grown. There's no wonder they're rare though, evolution would get rid of them pretty quickly on the savannah.

    alls i gotta say is that the zoo needs to amp up security because chinese poachers are presently salivating over what a white lion pelt could fetch .

    White Buffalo, White Whales and now white Lions.....anyone see an evolutionary change happening? White would reflect light if the earth were warmer....maybe these animals are evolving right before our eyes!!!!

    Evolution...oh, wait.... :))

    How wonderful to see new live in such a rare form how cute and adorable they are. I can not imagine how proud the zookeepers and the mother must feel.

    WOW!
