Lion Cam at Werribee Open Range Zoo

An open-range home for African lions

The Werribee Open Range Zoo recreates the wide, grassy landscapes of the African plains, and this camera looks directly into the spacious lion habitat. Instead of a cramped cage, the pride enjoys room to roam among trees, logs and earthen ground that echo their natural savanna.

Behaviour of the pride

Lions are social big cats, and the feed offers a window into their daily rhythms - from lazing in the shade to patrolling the boundary and interacting with one another. Patient viewers are often rewarded with glimpses of the pride's commanding presence.

Conservation at Zoos Victoria

Operated by Zoos Victoria, Werribee is part of a not-for-profit network dedicated to wildlife conservation. Streaming the enclosure connects audiences worldwide with these iconic animals and the work of protecting threatened species.

About the location
