Lions rescued from circus released into nature sanctuary – BBC News
The four lions were born in captivity and had spent their lives performing in a French circus. After one of the lions attacked the owner they went to an animal welfare group.
Plans for the lions to be released into the sanctuary in South Africa were delayed by two years because of the global pandemic but they are finally free to roam their new home.

The US said it has hit “dozens” of Iranian military targets in overnight attacks, in response to Iran hitting commercial ships in the Strait of Hormuz.
The military said it struck “air-defense systems, coastal radar sites, missile and drone capabilities, and small boats”, using aircraft, ships, and drones – including “one-way attack sea drones for the first time”.
“The Strait of Hormuz is a vital maritime corridor for global trade,” the US military said. “Iran does not control it”.
In response, Iran said it targeted US bases in Jordan, Bahrain, and Kuwait and also radar systems in Oman.

President Donald Trump has said the US is reinstating a naval blockade of Iranian ports and will impose a 20% charge on all cargo shipped through the Strait of Hormuz following days of escalating strikes between the two countries.
He said this would stop “Iran’s ships or customers” from entering or leaving the key oil shipping route, but “all other countries will have fair and open use of the Strait”.
Iran’s foreign minister later said whoever provides safe passage “should be compensated for this service”, but Iran would remain the strait’s “GUARDIAN” – using Trump’s word.
Tehran and Washington clashed over the strait’s control after exchanging strikes in the region overnight and on Monday.
The US said it carried out strikes against military targets in Iran, targeting air defence systems, coastal radars, and missile and drone sites. Iran said it responded by striking US military bases in Kuwait, Jordan and Bahrain, and radars in Oman.

Explosions have been heard near two Iranian port cities, Bandar Abbas and Bushehr, state media has reported.
It comes after another night of strikes between the US and Iran, with Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps saying it hit two UAE tankers in the Strait of Hormuz and targeted US facilities in Jordan and Bahrain.
The UAE called the attack “brazen”, adding that an Indian crew member was killed and eight others were injured.
Meanwhile, the US military says it completed strikes on targets aimed at degrading “Iran’s ability to attack commercial shipping” – Iranian state media reports three people were killed.

The US military said it was carrying out a new wave of strikes on targets in Iran. It said the aim of the attacks was to degrade Iran’s ability to attack shipping in the strait of Hormuz. It came ass the US Navy resumed its blockade of Iran’s ports.
Iran said that control of the strait of Hormuz was required for its national security and it will exercise sovereignty over the key shipping lane, whatever the cost.
President Trump announced that he was scrapping a plan he had announced a day earlier, for placing a 20% toll or tariff on all cargos passing through the strait of Hormuz.

I'm all for circuses, but no animal should be involved. Animals need to be in their own habitat and for the most part, be left alone.

Happy they are free. They never belonged in captivity. I hope they thrive. If they're freed in the wild, they might not be the strongest and will be prey to other animals.

3 Acres? It should be 38! Just more than 3…better than a circus I guess. smh

They look so much healthier then the animals who are born and live in the wild and die younge.

When I was a child I used to love watching animals perform in the circus. I honestly never knew the horrible conditions some of them were living in and being starved only to give them food when they perform tricks. Especially the ones born into captivity never stepping foot on green grass a day in their life. Basically only existing to entertain us. Most people don’t know what happens behind the scenes. I’m so grateful to everyone who gets involved in the rescue process. Thank you👏🏽

Will the captive born lions have the skills to hunt prey? And I wonder if the lions will perform tricks in the wild.

3 acres really that’s like a New York apartment for a lion. That’s not freedom.

aucun fauve, ni même aucun animal n’a sa place dans un cirque. Qu’on laisse le cirque aux clowns, aux acrobates, à qui voudra bien s’y produire. Mais qu’on laisse ces animaux enfin en paix !

People— meat and dairy farms will often treat animals worse than a circus. be aware what some of you call sick to pay money for at a circus is not nearly as unethical as farming animals for human consumption

And the owners probably tried to extort Maximum Cash for releasing these animals. They won't release them for compassionate reasons, no. PAY ME MONEY NOW.
