Birmingham | Jefferson County
Predator Zone, presented by Birmingham Coca-Cola Bottling Company, is one of a few of its kind in the U.S. with lions. It features two African Lions, a 5-year-old male, Kwanza and a 4 year-old female, Akili, at the Birmingham Zoo.
At Predator Zone, visitors will see zookeepers conduct training sessions on a daily basis through commands. This interaction serves as another tool for zookeepers to monitor the animals’ health and well-being on a regular basis. Predator Zone features a training area where zookeepers and visitors are on the same level as the animals.
