Animal Adventure welcomes five lion cubs
HARPURSVILLE, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – Animal Adventure Park had a lot to celebrate this Mother's Day as they celebrated a baby boom in the lion's den. Clous, Cladius, Claude, Claudette, and Claudia were born to parents Solomon and Bisa on May 7. Each lion and lioness is growing by the day, gaining weight and acclimating to the habitat. Claudia, the smallest cub, is currently under human care but is just as healthy as her siblings. Owner Jordan Patch says the average litter is between one and four lions, so having five is remarkable. 'Like any animal born at Animal Adventure Park, they're a part of a bigger picture and a bigger process. We consider zoological parks and animal parks like living arks. We're the museums for these animals and we are the ones holding them and keeping genetic diversity prevalent in captive management throughout the United States,' said Patch. The cubs will make their debut in about six weeks when they are stronger both mentally and physically. They will live at the park throughout the summer until they are ready to be weaned off their mother and placed in their new homes sometime in the fall. Animal Adventure is open daily from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Its sister facility, The Preserve, is also open daily from 10 to 5.

BINGHAMTON, N.Y. (WIVT/WBGH) – A Rochester man is facing several felony drug charges following a traffic stop in the City of Binghamton.
