ミンカ・ケリーさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ミンカ・ケリーInstagram)「repost @action4ifaw IFAW ambassador @MinkaKelly toured @lionstigers_andbears—an accredited "no kill, no breed, no contact" wildlife sanctuary in Alpine, California—to help us highlight the makings of a true sanctuary.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Lions Tigers & Bears provides a safe haven for abused and abandoned exotic animals and advocates to end the exotic animal trade. Unlike pseudo-sanctuaries, which seek to profit from wild animals, Lions Tigers & Bears does not use their animal residents for commercial purposes. They also do not breed their animals and do not allow public contact with them. Cub petting and photo ops with wild animals are dangerous practices that put people at risk and are inhumane for the animals which are often drugged, declawed/defanged, or taken from their mothers at a young age.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Minka met the residents of Lions Tigers & Bears (from a safe distance!), like Maverick the tiger and Baloo the moon bear. All have spacious, enriching habitats, nutritious diets, and quality veterinary care utilizing the highest safety standards.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ She also helped advocate for an incredibly important bill—the Big Cat Public Safety Act. Reflecting broad public support for safeguarding tigers, lions, leopards, and other big cats, Congress is considering legislation that would bring an end to the private ownership of dangerous wild cats in the U.S. ⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ If this bill passes, it would help keep big cats out of the hands of unscrupulous breeders, pseudo-sanctuaries, and roadside zoos. Tap the link in our bio to send a note to your members of Congress letting them know that you support this bill. You can view Minka's trip to Lions Tigers & Bears in our Story Highlights—stay tuned as she continues to support IFAW + big cats!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Photo: Alexis Embrey action4ifaw . . . . . #peopleandplanet #protectnature #lionlove #bigcatsofinstagram #wildanimals #africanlion #wildlife_vision #tigerlover #wildlife_inspired #wildlifeonearth #amazingwildlife #savetigers」11月15日 4時58分
