What did lions from the zoo eat during world war 2?

During World War II, zoos faced food shortages and challenges in maintaining their animals. Lions, like many other zoo animals, were often fed scraps of meat that were available, which could include off-cuts from local butcheries or remnants from wartime food supplies. Some zoos even resorted to feeding lions and other big cats non-traditional diets due to the scarcity of their usual meat sources. The situation varied by region and the availability of resources during the war.
