WATCH - Tiny lion cubs spotted play-fighting at Edinburgh Zoo
The trio are only three weeks old
A trio of six-week-old lion cubs have been caught play-fighting in their enclosure at Edinburgh Zoo.
The Asiatic lion cubs were born in August, and are part of an endangered subspecies.
They'll be given names once they are weighed and sexed by keepers and veterinary staff at their first health check.
Until then, keepers have shared footage of the little cubs getting up to mischief outside their den.
Edinburgh Zoo says it is extremely important to conserve the genetics of the species, enabling the future generations to be possibly reintroduced back into the wild if need be.
