Even though I adore animals, I can state unequivocally that a mature mountain lion should not be locked up in the back of a pickup truck.
However, Mufasa, a mountain lion, was made to live exactly there by force.
His existence was turned into a living hell while he was a touring circus act in Peru, all to amuse the public and enrich his owner.
Thankfully, a few animal lovers saved him.
Numerous animals are still mistreated and ignored in zoos, circuses, and other entertainment venues today. Although many animals’ circumstances have improved recently, there is still more work to be done.
due to the fact that thousands of needy animals are still compelled to live in cramped quarters and are denied the opportunity to lead fulfilling lives.
In Peru, a pickup truck was discovered with a chained mountain lion named Mufasa on it. Forcibly thrust into a life he neither desired nor earned, he had spent twenty years living there.

Mufasa was fortunate to have luck later in life. After several months of arduous work, Animal Defenders International, an organization dedicated to animal rights, succeeded in getting him released in 2015. When the group attempted to close down an entire Peruvian circus, they came across him.
Mufasa’s well-being significantly improved upon gaining independence. He was given the essential right that all wild creatures deserve, which is to live out his final years in the embrace of nature and on his own terms, as opposed to having to endure a life full of fear and persecution.
Mufasa’s story of rescue is heartwarming, and the video below documents his first steps toward independence. It’s really lovely!
Mufasa spent a few months of freedom following his rescue from the circus before his health started to deteriorate.
Twenty years of being shackled to the back of a pickup truck had taken a toll, resulting in kidney failure and other age-related problems. According to Animal Defenders International, he passed away in 2015.
However, his tale still throws light on a crucial matter.
Mufasa was a beautiful, kind animal that enjoyed having his back scratched. It is regrettable that he was unable to spend more time in the Amazon, his native home, but it would have been even more tragic if he had never known freedom.
The way Mustafa was treated was not acceptable for any animal! Please spread the word about this movie to demonstrate that you support animals as well!

A baby girl who ‘never stops smiling’ is living with a rare skin condition that makes her skin crack
Those nine months a mom carries her baby are filled with joy, anticipation, and a dose of uncertainty. What the new parents hope for is their bundle of joy to be healthy. Sadly, that is not always the case.

Jennie Wilklow, from Highland, New York, couldn’t wait to meet her daughter. She and her husband were over the moon to hold her in their arms. All the ultrasounds and doctor’s appointment suggested the baby was healthy, so they were eased and never thought sweet Anna would be born with a condition that would change all of their lives forever.
Jennie delivered Anna via C-section at 34 weeks. Doctors told her she looked beautiful and that was all Jennie needed to hear at that point.
Shortly after, the proud mom heard her daughter cry, and that was just another sign that everything was right with her little jewel.

When her husband visited Jennie, he was strangely silent and looked worried and puzzled.
“My husband’s silence scared me; he just sat in shock as the doctor left, and I prodded for more info,” Jennie shared with Cafe Mom.
“He just kept saying, ‘It’s bad.’ What does that even mean? I thought in my head. He told me, ‘Jennie, I looked in her eyes, and she has the most beautiful soul.’”
Anna was diagnosed with harlequin ichthyosis, a rare condition that causes thick diamond-shaped plates that are separated by deep cracks. “As they tried frantically to help her, her skin hardened within seconds (of birth). After hardening, it began to split, causing open wounds all over her body,” Jennie told Cafe Mom.

Although doctors weren’t sure she would survive, Anna beat the odds and is thriving. “She was beauty in the purest form,” her mom said.
There isn’t cure, and the treatment is quite demanding as it requires constant baths and keeping the skin as much moisturized as possible. “Every couple of hours I covered her with Vaseline and bathed her for many hours of the day. I had dreamed for years about the things my baby would wear, and though it seemed so trivial, it was what I struggled with most,” Jennie said.

In an attempt to raise awareness about this condition, Jennie posts photos of Anna on her Instagram page harlequindiva. She opens up about the everyday struggles and what it is like to have a child with harlequin ichthyosis.
“Anna captured everyone’s hearts because she is the purest form of perfection. Doing the work every day is simple when I’m doing it for her, and with every new accomplishment, the world celebrates with me,” Jennie told Cafe Mom.
She adds, “I now understand that I was given her because of the love I already carried in my heart for my daughter. Anna was meant for me, and I for her, and together we will show the world what true beauty is.”
