Lion has died in Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo
CHICAGO (CBS) — There's sad news from Chicago's Lincoln Park Zoo.
An African lion cub, Lomelok, has died.
The one-year-old cub was born with a spinal birth defect in January 2023.
He underwent spinal surgery back in March and, at first, appeared to be doing well.
But the zoo said he recently suffered a medical setback, and it was clear he was not on the path to recovery.
The zoo made the decision to euthanize him on Saturday.
