A well-known sanctuary in Arkansas dedicated to providing homes to abused and neglected big cats has announced they will be adding three tigers to their home.

Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge in Eureka Springs will be adding Kimba, Simba and Max from Big Cat Rescue in Tampa Bay this weekend. This re-location effort has been a joint effort between Big Cat Rescue and Turpentine Creek, as was announced earlier this year and they will be fielded in the newly developed Freedom Field.

Animal Defenders International rescued these three tigers from Guatemala in 2018 before being transported to Tampa Bay.
