The lions were rescued in 2010 and have been in Lima, Peru for the four years since

 

They are now getting ready to go to their new home at the Wildlife Animal Sanctuary in Denver, Colorado

The lions will be heading to the Wildlife Animal Sanctuary in Denver, Colorado soon, the nation’s premier habitat for large сагпіⱱoгeѕ.

In addition to lions, the facility is home to bears, tigers, foxes, bobcats, woɩⱱeѕ and even raccoon, to name a few.

 

Wildlife Animal Sanctuary is a sanctuary for large сагпіⱱoгeѕ where there are no cages and the animals run free

 

Vistors to the Wildlife Animal Sanctuary walk on elevated walkways so the habitat of the animals is never disturbed

The nonprofit, which was founded in 1980, is dedicated to protecting the health and welfare of its animals, and was not even open to the public for its first 23 years of operation.

Visitors now walk around on elevated walkways allowing the animals to roam free and never be caged.
