Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge could use some help.

I thought all you tiger lovers out there might be interested in the big cat rescue over in Eureka Springs, AR. They just took in the last of 34 tigers, cougars, and lions from the Riverglen Tiger Sanctuary. It took them 5 months to build enclosures for all of the cats whose previous owner has fallen into ill health and cannot adequately keep up maintenance on their enclosures or feed them properly.

There was a real concern that some of these tigers could escape into the Ozark National Forest. Turpentine Creek stepped in so that the tigers wouldn't be put down. It's a huge strain on their staff and budgets to take on that many additional cats.


Here's their site, check em out. Turpentine Creek If you're ever up this way definitely go visit the refuge. If you can donate a few bucks please do. Each of the over 30 enclosures cost an average of $7K to prep and build.
