Badenoch's Highland Wildlife Park owners, The Royal Zoological Society of Scotland, have shared pictures of their Valentine's Day celebrations at their Edinburgh Zoo HQ: adorable images of their six-month old Asiatic lion cubs, Mitaali, Keshari and Kushanu, celebrating Valentine’s Day with their parents.
Staff at the wildlife conservation charity helped the trio say thanks to their mum Roberta and dad Jayendra with decorated boxes full of treats.
The family are all are part of the European endangered species programme for the Asiatic lion, a species estimated to only have between 350 and 650 individuals left in the wild.
