Eurasian lynx rehomed to Shepreth Wildlife Park after rescue from animal sanctuary
A Eurasian lynx named Freddie has been relocated to Shepreth Wildlife Park after being rescued from an animal sanctuary due to welfare issues, along with 27 other animals.
A Eurasian lynx has been rehomed after being removed from an animal sanctuary following major welfare concerns for several endangered big cats.
Freddie was welcomed to his new home at Shepreth Wildlife Park, Cambridgeshire, after the closure of the Cat Survival Trust in Hertfordshire.
The lynx was one of 28 animals rescued after the prosecution of the trust's owner, Terrence Moore, who was found guilty of animal welfare offences last year.
Rebecca Willers, the director of Shepreth Wildlife Park, said: "This rescue mission shows how wildlife parks and local authorities can work together to give rescued animals like Freddie a second chance."
