Valentine's Day
Brotherly love
Max and Stripes love splashing in their pool, especially with a watermelon to play with – although it can get quite messy! Rescued as young cubs from a circus holed up in a junkyard in Guatemala, six years ago. Now they live in Kakato by April Fong Habitat, our largest tiger territory at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary. They are friendly, confident animals – Stripes, who was shy as a cub, now fully expresses himself! They love to play with any kind of enrichment, including their Valentine’s Day watermelon treat!

Ruben seems over the moon to receive his watermelon treat ahead of Valentine’s Day! This is Ruben’s first Valentine’s Day at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary after he was rescued last year from a life of lonely suffering in Armenia. He loves his toys, especially his special teddy bears made out of recycled coffee sacks. We can’t wait to treat him to more watermelon on Valentine’s Day – it will be another tasty treat for him to enjoy. Thanks to Sharon Barber who donated watermelon treats for all the animals at ADIWS.
Keep the fun going for Ruben, while supporting his physiotherapy. Donate toward more enrichment.

As Valentine’s week comes to an end, it seems appropriate to celebrate the incredible loyalty and love lions shows for each other. Our hearts broke last week when dear Iron passed away, the comfort for many being he was once again with his beloved OJ (Ojiclaro) again. The pair had been through hell together in a Colombia circus. Their battered faces looked close to defeat in their cramped circus cage the day ADI rescued them. But their spirit was not broken and were soon looking regal again in the basic, temporary rescue unit we had in Bucaramanga.

A very happy Valentine’s day from everyone at ADI and the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary.
Enjoy Tarzan and Tanya showing the incredible love and loyalty these animals have for each other. They went through hell in a Guatemalan circus but they got their happy ending at ADIWS.
Thank you to all the ADI supporters who made it possible through donations and adoptions.
Sasha tiger’s Valentine’s treat

Valentine’s week has started for Kesari
Valentine’s week has started already for Kesari at the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary, with a huge red present! Check out those huge paws on our biggest lion resident! How about showing this magnificent boy some love for the rest of the year, with an adoption?
Lion lovebirds
Valentine’s Day is almost upon us, settle in and watch one of the greatest love stories of all time, that of lions Tanya and Tarzan. They endured hell together, in a circus in Guatemala, but their love never waivered. She defended him when he was attacked, he calmed her when she was scared and today they remain inseparable in the ADI Wildlife Sanctuary, South Africa.
Will you open your hearts to them and adopt them for Valentine’s Day to help give them the care they deserve? It also makes a great gift for your loved one.
A Valentine’s Day Gift Adoption includes a personalized certificate, Valentine’s card, ADI Rescuer newsletter, rescue updates and a beautiful photograph of Tarzan and Tanya perfect for framing.
