近日，有网友发布视频称，辽宁省本溪市动植物园的一头狮子瘦得只剩皮包骨，就像纸片一样，引发广泛关注。

4月14日中午，本溪市动植物园发布情况说明称，2021年4月，雄性非洲狮“大毛”来到本溪市动植物园，入园时9岁左右，今年14岁。2025年8月6日，“大毛”配偶“盼盼”衰老死亡，丧偶后“大毛”精神压抑萎靡，食量不断减少。

A male lion at Benxi Zoo in Northeast China's Liaoning province has drawn public concern after recent videos showed him severely emaciated. The garden confirmed on Tuesday that the 14‑year‑old African lion, named Da Mao, had fallen into depression and largely stopped eating following the death of his mate Pan Pan in August 2025.

2025年12月，“大毛”开始精神沉郁，40多天几乎不进食，饮水正常，偶尔进少量活食，身形逐渐消瘦，每日几乎没有任何活动。

According to the garden, Da Mao began showing signs of lethargy in December 2025. For over 40 days, he barely ate while continuing to drink water normally. His weight dropped sharply, and he remained mostly inactive.

lethargy /ˈleθərdʒi/ n. 无精打采，死气沉沉

期间，本溪市动植物园对“大毛”进行全力医治照护，经过持续治疗调养，2026年2月末“大毛”慢慢恢复正常饮食，肉量逐步增加。目前，每日进食牛肉、鸡肉达5公斤左右，进入恢复阶段，其体力、活力、体重开始逐步恢复好转，特别是最近天气回温，“大毛”开始到室外笼舍活动晒太阳，并接纳新伴侣雌性非洲狮“豆豆”。

Veterinary staff provided intensive treatment. By the end of February 2026, Da Mao gradually resumed eating. He now consumes about five kilograms of beef and chicken daily and is regaining strength, energy, and weight. As spring temperatures rise, he has started venturing into his outdoor enclosure to sunbathe and has been introduced to a new female companion named Dou Dou.

4月14日中午，本溪市动植物园还发布了有关“大毛”的最新视频，显示经过四十多天的治疗，近一个月来，“大毛”的食量基本达到了正常量。

A video released by the garden on Tuesday shows Da Mao's food intake has returned to near normal levels over the past month.
