Born Free releases new video of Jora and Black’s epic 10,500-mile journey from Bulgaria to South African sanctuary
The Born Free Foundation has today released a heart-warming video of two magnificent ex-circus lions who were successfully rescued from Bulgaria and are now thriving in their new South African home.
Taken in as small cubs, Jora and Black were originally part of a circus act touring Eastern Europe and Turkey. Following the Bulgarian government’s much-welcomed ban on the use of wild mammals in circuses, the lions were left to languish in a stifling beast wagon until the owners agreed to re-home them with Born Free. They will now be given lifetime care in their large, natural and safe accommodation at the Born Free Jean Byrd Education and Rescue Centre in Shamwari.
