They were presented them on Sept. 29, 1971, in Atlanta by the Adams-Gates Company, which brought Lion Country Safari to Henry County. The cubs were named "Peanuts" and "Pickrick," for Georgia’s farming governor and ex-restaurateur lieutenant governor. The cubs were kept at the Lion Country Preserve in Florida until they could be moved to Henry County. UPI Photo
