The Fort Worth Zoo is celebrating the birth of two lion cubs. The brother-sister duo was born on June 29 to mother Saba and father Jabulani.

According to the zoo, the girl is more adventurous, bold and feisty, while the boy is more cautious and reserved and is often found close to his mom. The babies were named after their personalities – the girl is Imara, the Swahili word for strength, and the boy is Tamu, the Swahili word for sweet.

The babies have an older brother, Moja, who is almost two years old.

The zoo said zookeepers will follow Saba's lead as she dictates where and how the cubs spend their time in the den and main habitat. Zoo visitors might notice "baby proofing" in those areas with modifications, including extra logs and stepping zones for the cubs' safety.
