The moment Yuna takes her first steps on grass for the first time in her life… 💛🥹 Rescuing Yuna from the war in Ukraine, giving her a second chance at life, and now seeing her feel fresh air and grass for the first time—it’s incredibly special and beautiful. We know we still have a long road ahead, but she is showing an amazing amount of courage and even a bit of cheekiness already, and we couldn’t be happier. YOUR support has made this rescue possible. From all of us here at BCS, THANK YOU! Each donation and new member to our sanctuary brings us closer to giving these lions the safe and enriching lives they deserve. 🫶 Follow along for updates and the rescue of the remaining lions! 💛 #BigCatsInCrisis #Lions #rescue #thebigcatsanctuary
