Ena was conceived in January 2010 and landed at the haven on 24 June 2010.

Ena was seized from a French bazaar where she was kept in terrible conditions and was found covered up underneath a carnival horse trailer in a wooden box, where she had been kept detainee for the greater part of her short life.

Ares was discovered starving and debilitated with a serious eye disease, in a voyaging French bazaar. In the wake of being saved from the horrifying conditions and 10 months of veterinary treatment to get him sufficiently solid to travel, Ares at long last touched base at the asylum on 10 February 2010. Ares was conceived in 2007.

By January 2011, they had both settled in and were doing great. They were however alone in their different walled in areas. Since Drakenstein is a lifetime care haven, Paul dependably tries, if conceivable to frame little "prides" or fortified couples in the camps to guarantee that the lions have lifetime fellowship in their fenced in areas. Lions are exceptionally amicable creatures, and in nature they shape solid bonds. Notwithstanding when leaving the pride, two siblings will stick together keeping in mind the end goal to be more successful in surviving joyfully in the hedge. It is just under abnormal condition that lions will "walk alone" both in the wild and in imprisonment. At Drakenstein, Paul has just a couple cases this way, including one rather old, and rather cantankerous lioness who declined to bond with whatever other lion, and is glad to be without anyone else's input in her vast fenced in area.

Saying this, it is still an extremely dubious business to present two "unusual" lions. Guys from various prides will battle to the demise so that is sometimes even endeavored. Available for later when new lions are acquainted with protection undertakings and worries, there is a procedure called "boma holding", where the male and female are encased in a boma with a wall isolating them. The best time for the vis-à-vis presentation is the point at which the female comes into oestrus, so that the male will be more intrigued by "planting his seed" than securing his region, or so the rationale goes. And still, at the end of the day it is a strained circumstance, as lions do have their own particular wills and identity and on the off chance that they don't care for each other, they will battle and can seriously harm each other. In an encased, hostage circumstance this would likely be lethal, and ordinarily for the lioness.
