Re: 33 lions arrive at their new home

Bless all of the dedicated people who volunteer and work in the preserves/reserves in our country and all over the world.  They work very, very hard and try their best to keep the endangered and almost completely extinct animals alive and well.  It's not an easy job, and they are very heartfelt and dedicated people.  Heart

Re: 33 lions arrive at their new home

I am so happy for these lions.  I believe man will have to answer for how they treat their animals.  I look at some of these pictures and just want to put my head in my hands and bawl.  I hope their remaining years are happy and content.

Anyway, I'm so happy to have these lions removed from the horrors that they had to endure.


Oh, boy, do I agree w/you, @chickenbutt, & don't even get me started on dog & ****** fighting.  It just turns my stomach& I don't understand it either.

 

thank you very much for posting the story & photos, @butterfly123!!

ITA about dog and 'chicken' fighting.  At least that IS illegal but, sadly, it's still done to some degree.   Don't even get me started on how upsetting THAT is!!!  *MAD*
