The new members of the species, whose unique fur color is caused by a recessive mutation, will meet tourists for the first time this Saturday, according to local media reports.
According to the Global White Lion Protection Trust, they originate from South Africa, where fewer than 13 white lions remain in the wild, with hundreds in captivity.

Despite their unique white fur caused by a recessive gene, white lions are not albinos, and their coloring does not appear to be a disadvantage for their survival.
The quadruplets are reported to be healthy and growing rapidly, receiving constant care.
On Monday, the cubs had their first bath since birth as they prepared for their public encounter this week.
They can be seen playfully interacting with each other and enjoying their meal— a bowl of meat porridge— while being photographed by reporters.
Their first public debut is expected on December 26 when they will meet tourists in the park.
