Meet Ringo by ludwigsdiana

Meet Ringo

enjoying the winter sun. Last time I was there he was too far away in the long grass.

Ringo was born in a European circus. For most of his life he would have been confined to a "beast wagon" with hardly any room to move.

He would have undergone brutal and barbaric "training" and lived a miserable existence.

Fortunately he was confiscated from the circus and after months of planning he was successfully relocated here. For the first time in February 2008, he had freedom to roam outdoors.

The lion is so handsome. Sorry about his miserable past. Hope he enjoys in his new home.
