  1. I love this story and would like to know how to do
    I saw this on the news and thought it was just lovely. Imagine taking in a lion! I wonder how I could donate to this lady – does anyone know?

  2. I Fixed the Link Above
    So sorry folks, the link was broken on the AP story. You can read all about the lady now, just click above. I searched the web for you and couldn’t find any site for her shelter, or any contact info.

    Might I suggest sending a donation to the lady in Tennessee who saves abused elephants from circuses, and runs a large refuge for the animals, giving them joy and rest and care.
