Ahhhh Nooooooooooooooo
Gaza lion cubs die three days after birth | World news | theguardian.com
A rare moment of brightness in the grim reality of life in Gaza came to a premature end on Thursday with the death of twin three-day-old lion cubs at an amusement park.
No explanation was given for the cubs' demise in announcements on local news websites a day after endearing images of the pair were published on news websites around the world. But an interior ministry official told the Guardian that the cubs had been in poor health since birth, had not been feeding well and their father had been aggressive towards them.
The lack of experience among zoo staff in caring for exotic animals had contributed to their decline, he added. Officials had made contact with a zoo in neighbouring Egypt to request advice and specialist food and equipment, but nothing could be brought into Gaza because of the continued closure of the crossing, he said.
