Big Cat Updates

Aphrodite was released back into the wild last week. (See more below)

Hoover was moved to the Tiger Lake enclosure next to Seth.

Texas Tigers went on vacation.

Nabisco went into the enclosure next to Mrs. Claws.

Zimba Serval moved and is now next door to Zucari Serval.

UH OH!! Someone Touched Nikita Lion’s Toys!!!

We all know that Nikita Lioness does not like people touching her toys.  However, while doing lawn maintenance in her open-air cage keepers “had” to move them around.  Nikita was locked safely away in one of her roofed cages, ‘watching’ her keepers’ antics.

Bobcat Rehab News

Update from Brittany Mira 8/30/2018:  Aphrodite was released back into the wild last week. The reason we did not announce it or show it live was that there was a group of people that were putting her release back into the wild at risk.  We had the FWC come out and inspect her and they gave her the okay to be released, we finally found a release site and set her FREE! We were afraid they would interfere in the process so we didn’t broadcast it. Anytime that happens the safety of the cat becomes more important than taking photos, videos or showing it live. It was a very low key release but it will be featured in the next issue of The Big Cat Times. Run Free Sweet Girl!

Update from Carole Basking 9/4/2018: Jamie Veronica has taken little Alpha Bobcat to the Humane Society of Tampa Bay for diagnostics. We suspect some trauma to her jaw but had to stabilize her before we could risk sedation. Dr. Justin Boorstein has the tools there for repair that we don’t and we didn’t want to sedate twice.

How Was Your Labor Day?

I hope everyone had a wonderful Labor Day!!

Today was a very productive day. We had lots of volunteers come out to help clean and feed and take care of the cats. The morning started with ivermectin which was very successful. The Windsong Hospital was swept, mopped and trash taken out.

Nikki Lion’s open-air section was mowed and weed-eated. The middle section of Max and MaryAnn’s enclosure was cleaned up and all the sticks cleaned off the roof of the whole enclosure. We got a lot of general weed-eating and mowing done around food prep, both hospitals, around the keeper cafe, down to the everything else trailer and around the white tent where the buckets are stored to the wire pile. The lake bank behind tiger row and the area in front of Seth’s enclosure were also done.

Cats with open-air section have been locked in their roof sections overnight as a precaution with the incoming storm.

Interns Tanya and Dylan arrived back today. Both did their map test and passed.

We need a fecal sample collected for Nabisco.

Hoover did not want to eat again today after numerous attempts, he also was seen on explore throwing up. We even tried going down the middle between him and Seth and using a ladder but he just moved and lay under the platform

Laundry from the recovery hospital was done and returned.

We sent out two private tours this morning but had to reschedule the 3 pm tour due to rain and lightning. Thank you to Pam and Mary for covering the private tours and Denny for coming to help with the 3 pm. A huge thank you to Vanessa, MC, Bethann, Rich, MaryLou, Cindy, Rosel, Pam, Mary, Denny and the all the interns for a fantastic Monday!!

That’s it from me ?
Coordinator, Lauren Buckingham

Jennifer Leon has done a great job nurturing our relationship with law enforcement. It was great to see the Sheriff's office, who helped with the rescue of Gilligan, Skipper, Ginger, Mary Ann, Lovey & Thurston get recognition for their work.
