Three lions have recently arrived at Africa Alive zoo in Kessingland, Suffolk, and are reportedly settling in well. Bertie, Will, and Mak made a journey of 140 miles from Whipsnade Zoo in Bedfordshire to their new East Anglian home.

Keepers at Africa Alive have initiated recall training with the lions. On Monday, the three felines were given access to their outdoor paddock for the first time.
