In his prime he was a "majestic presence" who drew awe from visitors to one of Wales' top tourist destinations.

But the effects of age catch up with even the king of the jungle with the news that Hugo the 17-year-old lion has died.

Folly Farm Adventure Park and Zoo in Pembrokeshire announced "with heavy hearts" the passing of their beloved male African lion following a short illness.
