Holocaust Memorial Day: Two survivors tell their story

The victims of the Holocaust in World War Two are being remembered on Holocaust Memorial Day on Monday.

Six million Jews, and other people, were killed in prisons called concentration camps during the war between 1939 and 1945.

They were sent there because German Nazi leader Adolf Hitler thought certain groups of people were inferior.

But thousands of children managed to escape and were sent to the UK, including Ingrid and Henry.

They have been speaking to school pupils in South Lanarkshire about their experiences.

Cute lion cubs on show at San Diego zoo

Two adorable lion cubs have posed for the cameras at San Diego Zoo in the US.

The six-week-old brother and sister are doing really well and growing up super fast, according to staff there.

The pair are starting to learn essential lion skills like learning to climb and jump.

The unnamed male and female, born Dec. 6 to Oshana, are being bottle-fed 30-40 milliliters of kitten starter formula every two hours. That amount will increase as they grow.

After their 8 a.m. feeding, the male weighed 5.5 pounds, and the female 3.5 pounds, according to the zoo.

Keepers say the female cub is very feisty, while the male cub is calm.

Both are vocal when they want something, such as food or attention from animal care staffers. They also call for each other when separated for feedings or measurements.

The zoo said the cubs can be viewed at the Safari Park between 10 a.m. and noon, but like adult lions, they can sleep about 20 hours per day.

The cubs were the first born at the park since 2007, according to the zoo.

Super-rare Nintendo game on sale

An extremely rare Nintendo game is expected to sell for over £3,000 in an online auction.

The cartridge is called Nintendo World Championships and features short versions of three games - Super Mario, Tetris and Rad Racer.

The cartridge was never available in shops. Only 116 copies were ever made, for a gaming contest in 1990.

The game was designed for the NES console

A bid of £3,000 has already been made and experts say it's likely to fetch more.

Sadly the cartridge is in poor condition. The label has been ripped and somebody has written "Mario" on it.

In 2011 a copy of the same game sold at a charity auction for £6,600 - but it was in better condition.
