I found this story very heartwarming. Two lions were found roaming the streets in 2022. Nikola was malnourished and dehydrated in Montenegro. Vasylyna was found in the Kharkiv region of Ukraine in need of help. Both were taken to the Felida Big Cat Sanctuary in the Netherlands and the two big cats bonded. Their names now are Vasylyna and Nikolyna. Both of the lions now enjoy the South African sun, They have found a forever home that is run by the animal welfare group Four Paws and live at the Lionsrock Sanctuary. I tell you that photo brings tears to my eyes
Global animal welfare organisation Four Paws successfully transferred the two young lions Nikola and Vasylyna from its Felida Big Cat Sanctuary in the Netherlands to their forever home at Lionsrock Big Cat Sanctuary in South Africa. Both lions were found r

I didn't know there were lions in the Ukraine. Did it escape from somewhere?

@JudyEv yes that is odd but with all that is going on who knows also no idea about the lion from Montenegro, At least the ending is good,
