White Eagle - White Lion, Poland even has White Camels

The White Eagle is the Polish National Symbol. But, did you know that 10% of the White Lions in the world live in Poland?

At a small private zoo in central Poland a White Lioness just gave birth to three white cubs.

Zoo Safari in BORYSEW northwest of  LODZ is home to a 2 ½ -year-old white lioness that's been patiently feeding and caring for the cubs, which were born Jan. 28. Their father, 3 ½-year old Sahim, who is also white, is kept in a neighboring cage and roars at anyone who comes too close to his family.

The zoo will name the cubs after they grow a little more and can be weighed and identified as either male or female. They will be allowed on an outdoor run in April.

Opened in 2008, the zoo has animals of 80 species, including white tigers and white camels, and drew 160,000 visitors last year.

The zoo's owner is a machinery mechanic who loves animals and his son and a team of veterinarians work at the zoo.
