The domesticated lion

Newsday

Available for over a year

Lions may be fearsome out in the wild but in Texas, one lion has been demanding one thing- his blanket. Staff at the In-Sync Exotic Wildlife Rescue and Educational Centre rescued Lambert when he was a three month old cub after the family who bought him abandoned him. He was nervous at first so they decided to give him a blanket to curl up in and now he can't go to sleep without one. Newsday's Alan Kasujja spoke to Angela Culver from the rescue centre.
