Johannesburg Zoo. A huge zoo that has plenty of safari animals, as you can imagine (being in Africa). One of Johannesburg Zoo’s most famous and best-loved residents? Triton the lion. He’s a fun loving big cat. A must see if you head there. Enormous and regal, Triton is an impressive beast to behold. But he doesn’t just look good, he’s got the skills to pay the bills too!

You see, Triton can play soccer. He loves ‘football’ as it’s known over there and can really play. South Africans love the game of soccer, and that’s pretty clear here… They even hosted the 2010 World Cup over there and we’ve got to admit – we’re surprised that Triton doesn’t make the squad!

Watch the cute little ball games on show here at the Jo’burg Zoo… It doesn’t get more adorable!
