Lion cub Shenzi

Read something about her Lion cubWeek ago I had opportunity to pet a lion cub and take photos too of-course .
Here is short story about the cub.
Her name is Shenzi and about 3-4 weeks old. Sadlly she is the only one of 5 cubs that survived. The first problem was that the cubs were over-carried (cant remember how long) and that cause wrong develop of foetus. (Lioness pregnancy with 5 cubs very rare I think , ordinarily its about 1-4 cubs. And it was huge load to take for lioness organism). The second problem was the birth, cubs were to big for normal process of birth, only one cub could make it by natural way (I think it was Shenzi), so the keeper take the pregnant lioness to his friend vet, the vet had to do a caesarian section and take the cubs out. And the last problem is that the lioness hasn't took them as her own cubs.
Well thats enough of bad story...
Happily the vet who takes care of the cub said, that the mother lioness and cub Shenzi will be very
