Anastasia, Natalia, and Gustavo
Anastasia, Natalia, and Gustavo are Bengal hybrid tigers rescued with a number of other exotic animals from a roadside zoo in Mississippi in January 2012. The rescue was a joint effort involving state officials, The Humane Society US, and the excellent sanctuaries who made homes for the animals. HSUS and state officials put in years of work to close the roadside zoo where many animals died of abuse and neglect.
All three are being rehabilitated at Cleveland Amory Black Beauty Ranch. They will soon enjoy spacious multi-acre enclosures that will allow them to really run.
