The poor lion was finally rescued after being chained for 20 years

Here is a heartbreaking story about a mountain lion Mufasa who got saved from being chained for 20 years.

He was rescued from an illegal circus where he was forced to move in different villages to perform there. And in his free time he was locked up in the back of the truck.

He was finally rescued by the Animal Defenders International. And the head of the organization Jan Creamer stated that it was the most torturing scene they had ever seen. The chains and a heavy harness was were wrapped around him. And when he got rid of them he felt the freedom for the first time.

He was afraid of the rescuers at the beginning and looked really weak and sorrowful. This was his chance to live normally.

ADI healed him at their rescue center. The workers did their best to treat hima and recover his phisical and mental state.

And when Mufasa was cured he was transfered to the Taricaya Ecological Reserve where he would be in a special enclosure. He couldn’t be released into the wild as he wouldn’t survive there alone. So now he lives in a place close to his natural environment.

Mufasa has passed a terrible way and he really deserves to be free and protected in his new surroundings. It is truely wonderful to see him moving freely and feeling great in his new spase.
