Answer:
It's time to feed the lions said "the zoo-keeper ."
The zoo-keeper says that it is time to feed the lions.
According to the rules, if the verb introducing direct speech is in the present tense, the tense of the verb in the reported speech does not change.
We usually place the reported speech after the conjunction 'that' in order to make it clear that we are reporting and not speaking directly.
