A family of extremely rare white lions are about to be released into the wild in a step conservationists hope will save their 'species' from being condemned to captivity.White lioness Zihra, her mate Mandla and their three one-year-old cubs - sons Zukhara and Matsienge and daughter Nebu - are due to be freed in South Africa within the next few days.
They were each knocked out with an anaesthetic recently so that scientists could collar the big cats. This will help track the pride across the savannah in the future.
