At the Akwaaba Lodge there are three lions, a tiger, and a spotted hyena. The owner of the four- star hotel, Layla Cajee, has raised the cubs from birth. Bella the tiger, five months, is the leader of the pack, while the three lions, Delano, Romeo and Maximus, also five months. Meanwhile the eldest - Milika the hyena, six months - is the most mischievous in the motley crew.
