Okay, here's an excellent example where sanctuary directors make a conscious decision NOT to tell the truth to the media about where some of their cats came from--Sheba and Tarzan came from the WAO! Yes, WAO acquired the cats from other owners, but as you can see and hear, there was no mention of the now defunct WAO and why the cats had to be liberated from the failed sanctuary! It's as if the WAO never existed in the first place!
Let's get the history right, folks--what happened to the WAO animals was just as tramatic and important as to where they cats orginated! Tell the truth or don't say anything at all!

Mark Hernandez Loved the video -- just one thing -- why did Carolina Rescue not mention that the lions came from the failed Wild Animal Orphanage sanctuary?Well, folks there you go! The rise and disasterous fall of the WAO, where hundreds of animals lost their lives at the hands of greedy and immoral individuals, was less compelling than three individual stories. Need I say more on this subject?
about an hour ago · LikeUnlike.Carolina Tiger Rescue Mark- Scott Mason from WRAL did get a complete tour, and I do my best to give each animal's full story (including the WAO part). THe whole story is important in understanding what happens to wildcats over the course of their lifespan- and i...t is always our goal to be their home for life. The clips that WRAL chose for the stories of Rajaji, Tarzan, and Sheba were all their "first rescue"- most likely because that part of the story is more compelling, but all 3 had another home before coming to Carolina Tiger. You just can't get all that in a 5 minute segment. I would certainly encourage everyone to come out for a tour and hear each animal's bigger story! - Amanda B.
