The Henry Lions

Posted By on August 28, 2008

Through the years they acquired more lions, through breeding, more lions than cages. Grandfather had a friend, Mr. Gay, who had a lion farm in El Monte, CA. Grandfather gave Mr. Gay many lions. The lion farm was on Valley Blvd. near Peck Rd. Today, the lion farm no longer exists as Interstate 10 runs over the top of where it was once located. El Monte later became Grandfather’s winter quarters on Valley Blvd.
