This live streaming lion webcam is situated in the Smithsonian National Zoo which is home to ten lions; Shera and Nababiep are the two adult female lions, Luke is the single adult male (lucky Luke!) and there seven cubs ~ four females and three males. Four of these cubs were born to Shera whilst Naba gave birth to her three also in 2010.

Like many others we prefer to see animals maintained in the wild as hundreds of thousands are in national parks across Africa. If you are interested in adopting a wild animal to help provide for their care and keep them in their natural habitat have a look at www.adopt-an-animal.com. To visit this lion webcam either click on the picture or here, but be aware that the webcam may be dark if night time in the USA or temporarily closed for maintenance.
