Four lion cubs at Woodland Park Zoo doing just fine

They’re always so darn cute when they’re young. There are three lion cubs in this photo, but you have to look closely. Four were born at the Woodland Park Zoo earlier this month (Photo by Ryan Hawk / Woodland Park Zoo)

Corrected version:

The four South African lion cubs born at the Woodland Park Zoo are doing fine, say zoo officials.

The youngins’, born Nov. 8 to 3-year-old mother Adia, mark the first birth of lions at the zoo since 1991.

There are more photos and a video at the zoo’s lion cubs blog.

Correction: The original post mistakenly said there are three lion cubs. There are four.
