IFS officer Susanta Nanda recently shared a heartwarming update regarding three Asiatic lion cubs that have been given a new chance at life, thanks to the diligent efforts of forest officials at Nandan Kanan Biological Park in Odisha.

The cubs, affectionately named Amar, Akbar, and Anthony, were abandoned by their mother shortly after their birth, presenting a critical situation for their survival.

Recognizing the urgency of the matter, the forest staff swiftly intervened and transferred the vulnerable cubs to the neonatal Intensive Care Unit (ICU) where they could receive the specialized care required during this crucial early stage of life.

In a caption accompanying the post, Susanta Nanda welcomed the cubs, mentioning that they are being hand-reared after stabilizing them in the neonatal ICU.

“Welcome Amar, Akbar & Anthony. Seven year old Asiatic lion Rewa at Nandankanan Biological park has given birth to three male cubs. As the mother abandoned them, they were stabilised in neonatal ICU & are being hand reared now,” reads the caption.

This heartening rescue and care effort shed light on the persistent challenges faced by conservationists in safeguarding endangered species such as the Asiatic lion. It also underscores the vital role that zoological parks play as safe havens for animals that, due to various circumstances, are unable to survive in their natural habitats.
