IDAHO FALLS, Idaho (KIFI) — The Idaho Falls Zoo proudly welcomed two new lions, Kenya and Dixie, who made their official debut in the lion exhibit this week. The brother and sister pair come from a zoo in Texas and are now settling into their new home.
Kenya and Dixie replace Hondo, the zoo’s previous male lion, who left the Idaho Falls zoo in April for a zoo in Pittsburgh to participate in a breeding program with two lionesses.
Visitors can look forward to seeing Kenya and Dixie on regular display throughout the rest of the summer.
