Big Cat Rescue has been operating for slightly over 25 years now. During that lengthy span of time there have been numerous strange incidences involving their animals ranging anywhere from a cougar having a seizure caused by the sound of a helicopter to a serval found in its cage with a broken leg with only speculation as to what caused the injury. A recent incident involving one of their tigers comes close to topping them all. 

On September 28th Big Cat Rescue sadly announced that one of their beloved leopards had passed away. The leopard’s name was Jade and she had been in Big Cat Rescue’s care since 1997. Before people’s memory of Jade eventually fades away, we feel obligated to point out important facts explaining how she and her sibling, Armani (previously named Amber), “arrived” at their facility.
