In 2018, the Londisizwe Foundation responded to a plea for donations to have 4 lion cubs rescued from captivity in Ukraine.
These lions were born and bred into freezing conditions, only to be kept in a crate enclosure for the Circus in Ukraine. In conjunction with the Lawrence Anthony Earth Organization, Lionel de Lange and many other sponsors and donors, these lions were successfully rescued and transported to the Kragga Kamma Game Park in PE.
The lions sustained a few injuries during transit, which they have now successfully recovered. Berms were built for them to climb on-which they thoroughly enjoy , to say the least. It’s such a pleasure to see them run freely across the entire enclosure of the park. They have grown so much and equally picked up weight. The lion’s natural instinct has now also come to the fore when it comes to their hunting capabilities.
Soon it will be 2 years since these lions have touched down on South African soil and they have settled in very well. They are fed regularly, dosed for parasites regularly and completely and utterly been re-wilded.
These gorgeous images are indicative of how these lions have been transformed.
