Description
Bruiser (African lion) is the dominant male. He was hand raised by keepers at Taronga Zoo Sydney along with his two sisters – one of whom lives at Taronga Western Plains Zoo and the other at Perth Zoo. Bruiser is considered to be a ‘big sweetheart’ by his keepers!
Taronga lions will only fight over 3 things- Food, toys and their exhibit bed board. A couple of years ago when Johari and Asali became fully grown, keepers had to extend the bed board as Johari kept pushing Bruiser off, making him very angry!
