英文功課!!!! 救我呀....冇時間喇....

Remis the lion had a career in the security profession--as a guard lion for a Texas drug dealer. When the dealer was put in jail, he asked his son to take care of the lion. However, Remis was without food and water for several days, until he was rescued.

Yesterday, the recovering lion was delivered to the loving care of the Shambala Preserve. Perched on the edge of the Mojave Desert, the eighty-acre wildlife habitat has provided a haven for endangered exotic big cats since 1972. Currently, almost seventy animals live at Shambala, including African lions, Siberian and Bengal tigers, leopards, servals, mountain lions, bobcats, a lynx, and a Florida panther. Most of these animals were born in captivity and abandoned by circuses, zoos and private owners who could no longer care for them.

Often called the King of Beasts, the lion (Panthera leo) is the second largest member of the cat family. A large male lion measures from 2.7 to 3.0 meters, including the tufted tail, and stands more than one meter tall at the shoulders. He can weigh about 180 kilograms.

To donate and to learn more about Shambala Preserve, please visit www.shambala.org.

Note: Big cats includes lions and tigers. Small cats refer to leopards, cougars, panthers, bob cats etc. See http://www.shambala.org. You can adopt a lion!

I like lions and I am a Leo, so I don't want to write about lion escaping zoos and killing people. Hope this article works out fine.

How comes so tight (緊迫) of the timing?!

Unable to agree to last Note of You can adopt a lion. Not in the least! How can we adopt a wild animal? What a wrong value! How comes spreading such a weird concept? Who will take the responsibility if the lion owner is hurt or even killed? U Azuki?!
