Two female lions to be pride of Fota Wildlife Park

Lions look set to be the ‘mane’ attraction in Fota Wildlife Park with the arrival of two Asian female lions in recent days.

Gita and Gira have just arrived in Fota after a journey across six countries from Helsinki in Finland.

A male Asian lion from a Spanish Zoo is due to join the two females at Fota later this summer to hopefully start a new pride.
