About a month ago when we went to Mandalay Bay to eat. For some reason I got mentally turned around and suggested that we go see the lions after dinner. I could have sworn they were there, maybe because The Lion King is there. Needless to say, when I realized that we were in the wrong casino, Zorah was disappointed, and we promised her a rain check.
Today was kind of a cold, blustery day, so Brian had the good idea of going to the MGM Grand for lunch and finally taking Zorah to the lion habitat. We had been there before, but who can get enough of lions?
We were really lucky because we got to the habitat at one of the demonstration times. The handlers were playing with the lions, having them catch and gnaw at balls they were throwing around the habitat. They made sure to throw the balls to different areas so that everyone could get a closeup view. With her head up, the lioness seemed to be almost as tall as Zorah. Very impressive.
Zorah took some pictures when they were further away. Kind of blurry, but here is one.
