Return to the Wild Part 1

The Great Escape: Big Cat Rescue planned for this escape for months. Last year a baby bobcat call came in as the third one in three weeks. He only had one eye and a lump on his belly the size of an orange. Big Cat Rescue was there to get him the medical attention he needed. Emergency surgery repaired the hernia in his abdominal wall. The swelling was the contents of his intestines and other internal organs that had spilled out of the muscled area and were rubbing away at the inner lining of his skin. The attending vet, Dr. Liz Wynn, believes that his hernia and missing eye were caused by some sort of trauma. The area where he was found is completely surrounded by development in West Tampa, but bobcats are often reported there and last year one was found as road kill. After months of recuperation and rehabilitation, Chance the yearling bobcat was released. Watch the movie and see his wild dash for freedom.

I've never hear of or seen a white lion. Do they actually have white lions too? How would you get a white lion?

[BigCatRescue]

White lions do exist in the wild, though they are very rare. They are not albino the white colouring comes from a recessive gene, which both lions have to be carrying when they mate. White lions can be found in zoos and safari parks around the world, but are not a separate subspecies of lion.

wow i learned alot from this vid. its sad that there really not a healty breed i never knew that before, i absolutl love animals and its messed up that in circus' they breed the cat to get the perfect breed i also heard of white lion do u have any of thos ein your bigcat rescue???

[BigCatRescue]

Sasukeahrim, we do not have any white lions here. It is quite sad what humans do to animals for the sake of entertainment. It is even more astonishing that the public will pay to see it without ever stopping to think about what day to day life is like for the animals.
