Save Nala from being returned to the circus!
Nala the lioness was seized from a circus in Colombia in 2008 after her owner was convicted of cruelty.
She presently lives in Jaime Duque Park Zoo near Bogota but as a result of an order of the Administrative Court of Cundinamarca, in response to a lawsuit filed by the circus, Nala could soon be returned to the circus.
WE CAN’T LET THIS HAPPEN!
The Secretary of Environment of Bogota also sued and now the State Council is to decide the future of Nala, who has been scarred mentally and physically from her life in the circus.
PLEASE HELP!
