Remembering the (once) 3 MARA CHEETAH CUBS – Cee4life Youtube Channel – One of the most touching videos up on our Youtube Channel is of the Mara Cheetah Cubs which Cee4life fought so hard so, and continue to watch over. For those of you that missed it, here it is, for those of you who know, always remember. Simple – they were wild, they were lied about, they were taken and caged, they are still wild, and they are still precious to the critically endangered Mara Cheetah population biologically, and they got screwed over…. Never forget xo (Note: there are a number of follow up videos of the Mara Cubs which also can be viewed) The wonderful piece of music included in this clip is by a lovely Alaskan musician, Kathleen Spencer (links on clip).

A Lynx; plural lynx or lynxes is any of the four species
within the Lynx genus of medium-sized wildcats.

The name “lynx” originated in Middle English via Latin from the Greek word “λύγξ”, derived from the Indo-European
root “*leuk-”, meaning “light, brightness”, in reference to
the luminescence of its reflective eyes is considerable confusion about the best way to classify felids at present, and some authorities classify them as part of the genus Felis.

Neither the caracal, sometimes called the Persian lynx or African lynx, nor the jungle cat, called the swamp lynx,
is a member of the Lynx genus.

Behind the Cloak of Buddha – Cee4life “Reung Dao”

Reung Dao – Here is the photograph that my friend Ted Larson was able to take before Reung Dao was lost to the wildlife trade. Although I knew and met Reung Dao, I didnt get the opportunity to photograph her. Reung was the sister of Harnfa, she vanished in the early stages, when I first went to work inside the tiger temple in 2007. At that point, I did not know what was going on, but then one day she vanished…. She was gone forever. This is the sister of my beloved Harnfa. The diet of the temple tigers is near vegetarian, and lacking in every vitamin, mineral etc needed for a carnivore. You can see the horrendous deformaties of Reungs arched spine, bowed legs etc. This is the same with all the tigers. I am eternally grateful Ted Larson, you were able to show she was alive, that she existed, thankyou dear friend for having the courage to step forward xoxo

IMPHAL: Khordrak villagers, who have been terrorized by a feline, have been provided with torchlight sets and crackers by the Manipurforest department, a move initiated after

recovery of fresh pug marks of feline in the village, located close to Keibul Lamjao National Park in Bishnupur district.

The feline, suspected to be a leopard, killed a pig reared by one Heisnam Mahindra in Khordak about 10 days ago, the frightened villagers said, adding that fresh pug marks of the feline were found on Thursday last.

The villagers also said that they had heard the “leopard” growling at night, because of which after dusk, they were moving in and around the village in groups, armed with sticks and swords.

As recommended by the officials, torchlights and crackers have been provided to the villagers to help them tackle the animal, official sources said, adding some street lamps in the village that were dysfunctional would also be repaired.

The forest department would also lay traps in the village to catch the big cat, the sources added.
If the WII confirms that the pug marks belong to a leopard, experienced tranquilizer shooters from Assam would be engaged to catch the big cat, the sources said.
