General info: 

The Lion Park is a lion wildlife conservation enclosure in Gauteng province in South Africa. It is home to over 80 lions including the rare white lions and many other carnivores such as cheetah, wild dog, brown and spotted hyena, black backed jackal and a wide variety of antelope which roam freely in the antelope area containing blesbok, gnu, impala, gemsbok and zebra.
