It's a question we get all the time here at LIONSROCK, "How on earth do you tell Shevar and Sharukh apart?"
At first glance, the two tigers might look the same, but each has unique features (and personalities!) that make them one of a kind.

The two youngsters were absolutely thrilled by the season’s first snowfall at BEAR SANCTUARY Domazhyr. Their incredible caretakers even surprised them with snowmen stuffed with hidden treats—what a frosty feast! 🥕🌰
Every moment was pure joy, and we couldn’t stop smiling watching them play. 🐾☃️

Looking at Zora’s tired eyes behind metal bars - the reality of private keeping becomes impossible to ignore. Her space was restricted, her claws cruelly removed, her environment barren, her life reduced to waiting. 🦁🐾
FOUR PAWS estimates that at least 2,000 big cats are still kept in poor conditions across Europe. Many are housed in inadequate enclosures, lacking proper care, enrichment, and space. Even more concerning: in several countries, private ownership of big cats remains legal, despite the severe welfare risks. 🦁
On the rescue day, every detail mattered:
🚚 The careful preparation of the transport crate
👩⚕️ The expertise of the veterinary team ensuring her safety
🤝 The coordination and communication behind every movement
🦁 The specialised Big Cat Ambulance designed to
make her journey as comfortable as possible
As she was finally transferred into the crate, it marked not just a physical move, but the beginning of a new life at FELIDA Big Cat Sanctuary . ✨
Because rescues like this are not just about relocation.
They are about ending a cycle. 🔄
Private keeping often leads to:
⚠️ Inadequate housing and chronic stress
💔 Malnutrition and untreated illness
🔄 Stereotypical behaviours caused by confinement
🧬 Uncontrolled breeding and inbreeding
🚫 Animals with no viable future placement, sometimes leading to uncontrolled trade or killing
These are not isolated cases — they are systemic outcomes of a system that allows wild animals to be kept without the expertise or facilities they need.
At FELIDA, this lioness will finally have what she has been denied: space, professional care, medical attention, and the chance to recover - physically and mentally.
👉 Our work is necessary because the system still allows private keeping of big cats.
👉 Awareness is crucial, but so is stronger legislation. 📢
This rescue is one story.
But it represents thousands more. 🧡

After 23 long years in a tiny cage near a restaurant in Bled, Slovenia, bear Mici is finally rescued! Today, she enjoys a species-appropriate life in her forever home at BEAR SANCTUARY Arbesbach. 🌲
Just a month ago, our team embarked on a rescue mission to Slovenia to bring Mici to safety. Her owner agreed to voluntarily hand her over, and we immediately organized the rescue to give her the life she deserves. 🌸
When Mici arrived at the sanctuary, she was greeted by a magical winter wonderland – a blanket of snow covering her new home. For the first time ever, she can relax in a warm straw-filled den, something she never experienced in captivity. Seeing her settle in and start her new chapter is truly heartwarming! 💕
But our work isn’t done yet. Another bear, Tim, still lives in poor conditions in Slovenia. We urge his owner to follow Mici and Felix’s example and let Tim join us at the sanctuary. With your help, we can end the private captivity of bears in Slovenia once and for all – a milestone we’ve been dreaming of! 🇸🇮
Stay tuned for updates as Mici continues her recovery and adapts to her new life. 🐻🌲
This rescue was only possible thanks to your support. Thank you for being part of Mici’s journey! 💞

Does this affect YOU? If we want to protect global health, we must start where the problem begins: on the farm.
💊 Every time we misuse antibiotics in farming, we push the world closer to a point where common infections might no longer be treatable.
Antimicrobial resistance isn’t just a scientific term. It’s the silent side effect of a broken food system.
Animals raised in better conditions need fewer antibiotics. It’s that simple. Yet industrial farming keeps scaling up, using more drugs to sustain an unsustainable model.
If we want to protect global health, we must start where the problem begins: on the farm.
🌾 Fewer animals.
🐖 Better conditions.
🌍 Healthier future.
This is what real prevention looks like.

Thank you for loving Mark with us. 🐻🌈
Saying goodbye to our beloved bear, Mark, has been incredibly hard — but your kind words and heartfelt messages have meant the world to us. 💬
Rescued in 2022 from a tiny cage near a restaurant in Albania, Mark found peace at BEAR SANCTUARY Arbesbach. For three beautiful years, he explored his new home and was cared for by our devoted team.
Despite all the love and expert care, Mark’s health continued to decline. After thoughtful consultation, we made the compassionate decision to let him go. 🌈
Mark’s story touched so many hearts. He was gentle and he will forever live in our memories.
We’ll never forget you, sweet soul. 🐾

Everything is ready for Tims arrival. The only thing missing is Tim himself as his owner and the authorities are still blocking his relocation from Zoo park Rožman in Slovenia to our sanctuary in Austria! 🐻
While Tim still spends his days bored in an enclosure that’s far too small and offers no opportunity to dig, roam or hide, so much more would await him if he were given the chance to be relocated to us! Take a look inside BEAR SANCTUARY Arbesbach with our colleague Gerlinde Mairhofer and see the future that could be waiting for him. 💚
A spacious natural habitat. Room to roam. Soft ground to dig. Enrichment, expert care, and the freedom to behave like a real bear. 🌳
Everything is ready.
Our offer to relocate Tim still stands. We are ready to bring Tim at any time to BEAR SANCTUARY Arbesbach so that he can start over. But we cant do this as long as the owner and the authorities are preventing us from moving Tim.
While rescued bears Felix and Mici are finally enjoying the lives they deserve, Tim remains confined to a barren cage, denied the opportunity to live like a bear. 💔
Every day Tim spends at Zoo park Rožman in Slovenia is another day of unnecessary suffering.
Please help us keep the pressure on and continue supporting our campaign to #FreeBearTim ➡️ https://www.four-paws.org/campaigns-topics/campaigns/saddestbears/bears-in-southeast-europe/free-bear-tim?utm_campaign=feed&utm_medium=referral&utm_source=later-linkinbio
You can also leave a comment on the Zoo park Rožman Facebook page and ask the owner to give Tim the chance at a better life under our care.
