Casa Arabe is committed to being a meeting point between Spain and the Arab world
Residents in the Al Barsha neighbourhood of Dubai might have noticed a stranger roaming their streets Thursday when a lion went out for a stroll.
Media reports state that authorities captured the lion, which had escaped its owner's home.
Dr Reza Khan, Head of the Zoo Section at the Public Parks and Horticulture Department of Dubai Municipality says, "The lioness was brought to the zoo at 11am on Friday after being captured by the Dubai Municipality the previous day."

The estranged lioness hasn't eaten anything and is still settling in. "We have given her water, but she hasn't eaten yet. We will give her some food after 4pm. By evening she should start eating. These animals can go for a day or two without food."
He asserts that she is nervous, but fine. She will possibly get better with a little more time.
