Henry the Lion

We headed to our Henry Vilas Zoo for the first time this year back in May. There's a new lion cub there, named Leopold. He's about 5 months and very playful. This is Henry the Lion, his dad. He comes right up to the little viewing station. In these photos he's only a couple short feet from us! He's so fun to look at... Tess called him "puppy."

Here is Claire and Henry's annual zookeeper and animal photo. That lion is picking his nose!
