Dickerson Park Zoo isn't open to the public right now because walkways are covered with ice and snow. But, some of the animals ventured out to soak up the sun. I caught "Ade" (a-DAY), our male lion, relaxing for a cat nap.

Isn't that kinda weird....are lions supposed to be in a warm climate without snow and ice ? Like in the savannah of Africa?
