Karlos’s Story
Karlos was confiscated by the NSPCA after being found close to death at a breeding farm for lion bones in South Africa. He was immediately put into the care of veterinarian, Dr Peter Caldwell. With the support from Born Free, the courageous cub was relocated to Panthera Africa after five months once their condition had improved. He still walks with difficulty as a result of their malnutrition and lack of care as a cub, but is improving daily with the care and love he deserves. Karlos is currently living in the Rescue Section that is not open to the public.
