All together now: Awwww!

Meet Nyack, the new lion cub at the San Diego Wild Animal Park (totally cool place —  go if you’re ever out that way!):

This photo, shot by Ken Bohn for the San Diego Wild Animal Park, is of four-month-old Nyack (to the right). That’s his cousin, Ingozi, he’s saying hi to.

A boy, Nyack just moved to the park’s Lion Camp, having spent his life until now at the park’s nursery, where he was hand-raised. He was “born Dec. 6 following a difficult delivery.” Here’s a link to the video about how he was hand-raised and introduced to his fellow lions.

Any votes on what the next baby lion born at the park should be dubbed? Sparkill? Pomona? Tomkins? Leave your suggestions below!
