Lucifer the Asian lion

The Asian lion has a sample in the Frozen Ark

Adopt Lucifer, ZSL London Zoo's loveable but notoriously cheeky Asian lion.

Ever the practical joker, Lucifer loves hiding out of sight and then jumping out to scare unsupecting keepers walking past his enclosure.

However, since the birth last year of cubs Rubi and Max, Lucifer has had to mature a little bit! He is a fantastic dad to both cubs, putting up with the odd tail biting and ear pulling here and there.

By adopting Lucifer for yourself or as a gift, you will be directly supporting ZSL’s conservation work. Your donation will enable us to continue to conserve endangered animals and their habitats, both around the world and in the UK.

Online adoptions are £30 each and include:

• A free e-ticket to the zoo - so you can visit your animal

• Access to exclusive animal web pages - for images and videos about your animal

• Personalised e-certificate – for you to download and proudly display

• Subscription to Wild About – ZSL’s award-winning quarterly magazine

• Email updates – keep track of what your animal has been up to
