This is Sheila, she is twenty three years old, the only lion left in the zoo. Her mate Matt, died last year at twenty five. They will not bring in any more lions until Sheila passes away, as the younger group would not tolerate her and would probably kill her.The plan, I believe, is to bring in a breeding group in due course. So she is in lonely retirement. She is beautiful and so graceful.
Lovely zoo pictures, the old lioness touches my heart.![]()
Oh she is gorgeous. I hope she is enjoying the peace & quiet at her age.

Thanks Madamada. It's a large pot of daisies that my Dad lovingly cultivated and dead headed every day over the summer in their back yard. He was so proud of it. I'll blog a bigger photo of it and you'll see how beautiful it really was. ![]()
