Proud daddy, Owambo, and mom, Somali, welcomed these three cubs – aren't they precious?! The Berber lion babes are currently exploring their home at Vienna's Schoenbrunn Zoo and are getting bigger everyday.
Now, I'd never heard of this species, but found out that they've been extinct in the wild since 1922. Zookeepers haven't gotten close enough to examine the lil ones, but think that two are male and one's a girl – try to guess for yourself in the piccys below.

They are BEAUTIFUL! I think it's wonderful that zoos are able to keep these breeds alive.
1Awwwww! They're better than ligers, they're like... Liopards? SO CUTE
2They are so cute!
3What adorable cubs! As soon as I saw them I was all awwwws. I'd never heard of the Berber lion before either. They have spots! Oh so fun!
4They are absolutely gorgeous!
Too bad they can't stay cubs forever. Young ones grow up too fast!
