The cub appears to be healthy and strong, despite the fact that Tamu, her mother, is not nursing the cub adequately. The staff has been supplementing the cub's diet with bottle-fed formula. The father, Mshoni, is one of the most genetically valuable lions in the Association of Zoos and Aquariums' population. This is first surviving lion birth at Jacksonville Zoo since 1974.
