If you care about animals — especially majestic rescue animals like lions, tigers, and bears who've survived neglect, abuse, or abandonment, you probably wish you could do more to protect them. Every day, big cats and other wild animals are seized from illegal pet trade, retired from exploitative entertainment, or rescued from failing roadside zoos. […]
If you’ve never heard of a serval, you’re not alone. Servals are one of Africa’s lesser-known wild cats. They’ve got a striking appearance – much like someone took a little cheetah and gave it extra-long legs, and have exceptional leaping abilities. Imagine a medium-sized cat that jumps higher than your living room ceiling! Amazing, right? […]
Wild animals have specific social structures that shape how they interact. Tigers live and hunt alone. Lions depend on their pride for survival.

Have you ever watched a cat bat around a toy or pounce on a string, utterly captivated by the thrill of the chase? Magnify that curiosity and power a hundredfold, and you’ll start to glimpse how big cats and exotic animals play—both in the wild and in their sanctuary environments. Play is integral to an […]
When you think about exotic animals, you probably picture them in the wild, roaming freely and living as nature intended. Unfortunately, that's not the reality for many animals in cages. Those in captivity (zoos, circuses, private ownership, etc.), often endure devastating physical and psychological trauma. The confinement to small cages with little space, stimulation, or […]
