The Living Desert Zoo and Gardens is excited to welcome two mountain lions from the @oakzoo – Rose and Sage – later this week. Rescued separately as unrelated, orphaned cubs, Rose and Sage have earned a place in the hearts of many, near and far. Stay tuned for more CUBdates soon!
Big news in this Rose & Sage CUBdate: the dynamic duo is headed soon to their new forever home: @livingdesert in Palm Desert, CA!
