The Pride Needs Your Vote
Last November, the Detroit Zoo welcomed three African lion cubs — one male and two females — born to first-time parents Amirah and Kalu. All three are healthy, growing fast and full of energy. Now they just need names, and that’s where you come in. We teamed up with the Detroit Lions to let you name the newest additions to the pride. Vote for your favorite, and then enter to win some incredible prizes.
