The Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum has officially introduced the names of its two rescued mountain lion brothers, and the heartwarming story behind them is winning over animal lovers across Southern Arizona.
In April, KGUN 9 shared the story of the two orphaned mountain lion cubs rescued in the Pacific Northwest who were now beginning a new chapter in Tucson. During the museum’s 33rd annual Desert Gala on April 26, attendees—and even remote participants—had the opportunity to bid on naming rights for the two cubs in a live auction. The winning bidder chose names that the animals will carry throughout their lives at the museum.
