Big Cat Updates

At her recent vet visit, 22 year old Tiger Lilly weighed in at 22 lbs.

Andy Tiger has healed up from his neutering and has been released from the roofed section of his enclosure to the the lake access section.  You can go to Explore.org/TigerLake to watch Andy enjoy the lake.
There's a new tiger for the viewers of explore.org to watch. Andy tiger now has access to his full enclosure!  June 1 2017 Andy jamie 500x361

Baby Cakes the African genet has been reported as lethargic on and off. Genets usually live to be 8-13. He was found wandering in a neighborhood, as an adult, 17 years ago and came here. We guess him to be 22 based on the age we thought him to be on arrival.  The vet drew blood to check him for a known issue in genets that causes their blood sugar to be unstable.  Being inside we can control the temperature and keep a better eye on him until we know better what we are dealing with.  If you think there isn’t much known about taking care of tigers, you should try and find anything useful on African genets.

Ginger Serval went back to her previous enclosure next to Frosty Serval this morning.  The cage she vacated is about 3 or 4 cages hooked together so perhaps close to 4,000 SF which is being prepped for the arrival of Chaos and Cyrus the Caracals we are bringing in soon.

Zucari the Serval will get Nirvana Ocelot’s empty triplex by the Kitten Cabana, so you may be able to sneak some peeks at him via the Kitten Cabana webcam when he arrives.

If you want to help with the rescue expenses and the care of Chaos, Cyrus, & Zucari please go to BigCatRescue.org/donate No amount is too small because it all adds up to make a big difference.

June 1 2017 lion funnySAVE Award May 2017

For outstanding volunteer service, the May 2017 SAVE Award goes to Brittany Mira! Brittany is truly passionate about the cats and providing excellent care. She is always willing to stay in the afternoons to help with projects and is a great team player.

A donation of $1000 has been made in your honor to the Wildlife SOS India to save leopards.

June 1 2017 MLRC Cub 500x281

The areas surrounding Maharashtra India, consisting of scrub jungle abundant with small prey, have provided ideal habitat to leopards. However this habitat has began being destroyed by development, and what was once a leopard haven, has now drastically changed since the Government began to provide financial incentives to encourage sugar cane cultivation in these areas.

Rapid deforestation was the consequence of creating sugar cane fields, leaving the leopards with little option but to adapt to the changing landscape. With a shrinking forested habitat remaining for foraging, hiding and to live in, the leopards were forced to move to into the sugar cane fields. Female leopards have begun to give birth in the tall sugar cane crops. The height of the plants provides the most suitable cover for a mother to conceal and protect her cubs from predators. Sadly, cub season coincides with the sugar cane harvesting season and protective mother leopards will attack if people come near their young. Naturally this causes public anxiety and a tense man-animal conflict situation. Worried villagers call for the Forest Department to trap and remove the leopards even if no dangerous incidents have occurred. Historically, some of these captured Leopards were released back into the wild and others, particularly those with a history of attacking people, were left in solitary confinement mostly in cages the size of small dining tables, for the rest of their lives. Public resistance to re-release, put pressure on government offices with few resources, to explore more humane options for the cats.

In 2007, Wildlife SOS partnered with the government to expand an already existing Leopard Rescue Center to address the emotional and logistical needs of India’s Leopards. The Manekdoh Leopard Rescue Center run by Wildlife SOS in collaboration with the Maharashtra Forest Department houses 31 leopards and provides a transit home for leopards injured by villagers or trapped in conflict situations. The center also houses several orphaned leopard cubs who cannot be released back into the wild as they are severely imprinted.

Wildlife SOS also reaches out to local communities to increase understanding about Leopards. The goal is to help people co-exist with leopards by increasing tolerance, and diminishing fears that have manifested due to ignorance and misconceptions about the cats.

Wildlife SOS has vets that have been conducting awareness sessions in schools, colleges, forums for environment awareness with the objective of educating people about leopards and their behaviour leading to better understanding and tolerance and reducing incidence of conflict situations

Keeper Brittany Mira:  Checked in on Tiger Lilly today. She looked like a wide eyed kitten with her fresh grooming and trimmed ruff ?lol she seemed to really enjoy laying in the new soft soil under her platform instead of just hiding in her den.

Super special memory made today with princess Tiger Lilly. She had developed some pretty intense mats down her spine but luckily, overall she looked really great for a 22 year old bobcat. Such a relief! I made her promise she wouldn’t be mad at me after this… we shall see ?fingers crossed?
