Big cat staff are carrying out essential maintenance work on the waterfall in Lion Ridge, to get it up and running again for DZGs three Asiatic lions.
Keeper Jay Haywood, said: Over the last few months the waterfalls plumbing has become clogged up and stopped working, so as were having to do DIY work on it anyway, weve decided to repoint it and improve the water flow.
It is going to take time to do as we are only able to complete the work before and after zoo opening when the lions are safely locked inside, so we can only do bits at a time but were aiming to have it running again in time for the warmer weather as Mwamba, Kyra and Asha will love splashing around in it.
