🦁 The Cause: Help Rescue a Ukrainian Lion Family
Lion Rescue 3 has begun, and this time, Oleg, Rafael, and Shanti who have a second chance.
At just eight months old, these three lion cubs have already faced tough beginnings, born into uncertainty and caught in circumstances beyond their control in war-torn Ukraine. But their story doesn’t have to end there.
Thanks to your support, the WildLife Foundation is preparing its next journey, one filled with hope have lived through unimaginable conditions. Now, they need your help to find sanctuary, safety, and a new beginning at Yorkshire Wildlife Park’s world-class Lion Country reserve.
🐾Meet the Lions You're Helping to Save:
Oleg was rescued as a cub from private owners who fled the Sumy region during the escalation of war. Raised by humans, Oleg is frightened of people but clearly longs for a connection with other lions. Right now, he lives alone, not by choice, but due to lack of space.
Rafael and Shanti, siblings, were found in the Kharkiv region next to their dying mother, a lioness who had been abandoned in a private menagerie and starved. The cubs survived against all odds. Raised by their mother until her final moments, they are now inseparable, gentle, and curious around people.
Now, with your support, these three remarkable lions have a chance to change their lives forever and bring them to the UK, where they’ll live safely together, perhaps for the first time in a proper pride-like setting. According to wildlife specialists on the ground, bringing Oleg together with Rafael and Shanti would be transformative for all of them.
🌍 Your Impact: From War Zones to Wildlife Haven
In 2024, we successfully rescued the lioness named Aysa and her cubs Emi, Santa, and Teddi, abandoned in Ukraine. After months in limbo at a temporary facility in Poland, they were finally brought to safety at Yorkshire Wildlife Park’s Lion Country reserve.
Thanks to generous donations, the WildLife Foundation made their journey possible, funding emergency transport, veterinary care, and rehabilitation.
Now, the Foundation is building on that success by creating a dedicated rescue fund, designed to respond rapidly to emergencies involving animals affected by war, natural disasters, or illegal captivity.
Every entry into our prize draw helps make this work possible, providing urgent care, safe passage, and a second chance for animals like Mira, Zorya, and Cleopatra.
Now, the WildLife Foundation aims to create a dedicated rescue fund to respond swiftly to future emergencies involving animals affected by conflict, natural disasters, or illegal captivity.
Your support will help provide safe transport, medical care, and lifelong sanctuary for animals in urgent need.
Every entry into our prize draw contributes to this vital rescue fund.
