Four lions at Barcelona Zoo, three of them older females, caught Covid-19 last month but suffered only mild symptoms and have since recovered, the Catalan animal park said.
Their keepers were tipped off when they noticed "mild respiratory symptoms" among three 16-year-old females and a four-year-old male, a zoo statement said.
The symptoms emerged as two of their keepers tested positive for the virus.
