Sheila The Lioness
Sheila, the lioness, is someone you have yet to meet. She is a stunning lioness who has spent the majority of her life performing as a display animal at private parties. In any case, her physical and mental well-being began to deteriorate. Her supervisor was unable to keep track of her routine veterinarian medications; fortunately, animal rights advocates intervened and saved her life. Unfortunately, it appeared that Sheila had reached the end of her rope by that point. Her new guardians were concerned that they might have to put her down. Until something truly remarkable happened…
Saving Sheila
Sheila the lion was rescued by the United States Department of Agriculture in July 2009. That year, the lions were brutally torn apart in almost every way, but it was especially traumatic for Sheila. She was frail and helpless due to her extreme underweight. People who saved her believed she had a slim chance of surviving, but they took a chance and urged her to keep going despite their reservations. To put it mildly, they hoped for an improvement in her health.
