Update on Aslan the cub

[Sven]

Anyone who recalls this now-locked thread from 2010 will remember that the Washington National Zoo named one of its seven new born lion cubs Aslan. Well, now Aslan is getting to be a big boy, so they are moving him and his brother Baruti to the Calgary Zoo so as to spread the genes around

You can read the complete article here.

Here's a picture of Baruti and Aslan. I think Aslan is the one on the right.

Wow that's awesome. I was not on here in 2010, so this is the first time I have heard of them.

^ Same for me, I'm surpised it doesn't happen more often

When I first saw this, I thought it said "Aslan the club"

I'm glad Aslan the cub has grown up so well. I hope the future for this majestic creature remains bright.

Thanks for posting, I don't remember the original announcement, but I am excited to see the nearly grown lion cubs.

Just another update on the cubs, Aslan included. They have turned, or are going to turn 2 years old. Also, Aslan and another one of the male lions have proven healthy and are bonding well with the lionesses at their new home.
