Sam...Sam was born at Dudley Zoo where he was hand-reared by the staff. Although he was not raised by his mother, the staff at Dudley Zoo made sure that Sam learned to behave as a lion and did not become dependent on or too familiar with people. Happily, Sam grew into a healty, well-adapted lion and now lives with his mate Sarla at Parken Zoo.
