    Thank you to those of you who have reached out with questions - we appreciate your concern for these big cats! Safe Haven is accredited by the Global Federation of Animal Sanctuaries. GFAS does regular inspections of accredited facilities to ensure these standards are being maintained. Safe Haven is one of only 7 big cat sanctuaries in the US to achieve this distinction
    When this video was created, the Safe Haven Wildlife Sanctuary was newly developed and grass was just beginning to grow!
    Check out this photo of Carli enjoying laying in the grass! facebook.com/safehavenwildlife/photos/a.640554762643220/2170801799618501/?type=3&theater
    It is important for most sanctuaries to keep the grass short, as long grass can harbor ticks and possible lethal diseases to big cats like Bobcat Fever.
    Due to human greed for money or misunderstanding, these big cats were put into situations that require them to have human care for the rest of their lives. Luckily, these big cats have a safe, happy and healthy home at Safe Haven.
    Please visit Safe Haven's Facebook page if you would like to see updates on how these big cats are thriving - facebook.com/safehavenwildlife
    If you have additional inquiries, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our supporter team - available at info@ifaw.org. Thank you all for your compassion toward animals.

      Do they have trees?? Do they have long grass to hide in? If no, then its a very bad environment for a JUNGLE animal. They live in forests, that's what they need to feel safe, not an artificial tin hut. If you want to keep animals in that environment go get some reptiles.

      +IFAW - Please pin your note here to the top. Read your comments! This section is full of negativity from people who haven't found this. And if you'd care to, elaborate on the plan going forward, and especially the impact of funding. This vid is a good call to action - link to your donations page!

      if you do not have the proper habit why rescue an animal only to torture it some more with inhuman treatment? use Diatomaceous Earth and sulfur to kill ticks fleas and other bugs and spiders. If I can figure this out.... why cant these so called educated idiots figure it out?

    • @whitexchina
      @whitexchina 3 роки тому +22

      So many people are way too harsh on them. These cats come from the worst conditions & it isn't easy to get all the money, one needs to built a perfect sanctuary.

    Please put a shade cloth awning over the pool to give it shade in Nevada’s extreme heat. Water will keep them cool and clean if you do it right.....your overall work and vital strategic intervention into the survival of these magnificent evolutionary beasts is so impressive and so essential....please go the extra mile for them !!

    • @Automedon2
      @Automedon2 4 роки тому +1

      This place is awful and I suspect it won't last long. I only hope it's not a case of it existing for the sole purpose of fund raising. Those animals don't belong in 120 degree heat. I asked about that and the rep told me that they have shelters to keep them "cool", as though one can stay cool in that type of heat just by going into the shade. And, that water will overheat and evaporate daily. What a bunch of ignorant clowns. Frankly, it pisses me off.

  • @kyosantofu

    The mining company I used to work for used to get us all together and we'd donate time out at this place to help build things. This place seems well taken care of. Is it these animals natural habitat? No. But for animals who have only ever known captivity and abuse on top of that, they lead a Much better life now.

    The rescuers could benefit from watching Big Cat Rescue transfer and transport the cats. For instance, at 0:23 they should have put a cloth cover on the cage they were moving. It would have significantly reduced the cats' stress levels.

      paul cooper so did she say something wrong? Are you an expert? I'm not, I'll get that out of the way right now, but putting curtains over cages tends to pacify an animal. I would also like to point out that was kind of a botched improvement. It was an improvement, but they still can't swim or dive down-tigers like to do both of those activities. They should've made it twice the diameter and twice the depth. I couldn't afford it, but I also don't rescue tigers either.

      @Automedon2 4 роки тому +1

      Trees don't survive in the desert. That's why it's a desert. The native animals that manage to survive there have evolved over thousands of years to tolerate the heat. It is beyond me how they can put animals in a harsh environment that reaches 120 degrees and have them living on hot rocks. It may be bigger than where they came from, but it must be a living hell.

      Hi Gina, thanks for caring about the tigers! The enclosures contain shade structures, so the cats have plenty of opportunity to get out of the sun if they choose to. Safe Haven has also been gradually adding mature trees in and around the enclosures since the time of this video. If you'd like more information, please refer to our pinned comment at the top.

These fleeting moments of pleasure is all they're going to enjoy because they won't even be able to Payson there because the ground will be so hot they won't be able to Pace or walk on the hard hot ground they need to have vegetation they need to have adequate shade or canopy over the entire shelter and they need some vegetation and they need to build structures that actually provide full shade at least in New York they weren't going to be baked alive in the middle of the desert exposed to Sun 100% of the time and that pool has no shade it should have shade or that water is going to be just as hot as it was in the aluminum pool seriously these ladies don't know what they're doing they are literally baking the tigers alive Siberian tigers should be in an area where it's going to be cool and snowy for at least part of the year and they have some trees and vegetation!!! I hope these ladies eventually see how irresponsible and cruel they are being placing the Tigers in this supposedly shelter I would be embarrassed if I was them

    It's still a cage. There are many, species specific sanctuaries where they could roam free over hundreds of acres with no other predators (hunting instinct never leaves, always returns & they are monitored to make sure they're thriving). Why not one of those. That place looks as grim as a zoo, just a bit bigger.

      Their habitat isn't quite a habitat anymore. Even the wild Tigers are struggling to survive. They either lose their habitat, along with the prey they eat. Or, they attack the people who took over their habitat and end up getting shot.

      Zoos and circuses are completely different things. Yes, there are some zoos with terrible conditions, but in general - zoos are necessary for survival of endangered species. Our "higher species" can wipe out all endangered species if they are only left to themselves.
      Circuses treat animals badly, they don't do anything for their survival, they aren't even educational (seeing a tiger jump through a hoop won't teach children anything about tiger's real life) and generally only those artists who perform out of their free will (humans) should perform in circuses. But I don't think the same kind of criticism can be justly applied to zoos as well.

      There's a zoo in my city. There are the tigers in the zoo. And the tigers zone in the zoo looks MUCH better than this. So it's beautiful to see tiger in a almost empty, dry, hot cage with a cement hole, and it's terrible to see tiger in much bigger green space with trees, bushes and rocks, because it's in the zoo and the zoo is a bad thing. Flawless logic.

    Heartwarming video to see Tigers enjoy there new home.
    Didn't know that Tigers can do well the desert with such high heat.
    Thanks for all you do, LA Guy

  • @LadyBirch
    @LadyBirch 6 років тому +48

    This shelter is going to be just as bad in that constant heat, no trees, vegetation and that canopy is not going time provide enough shade at all!!! I hope they build more shade features. Also still not enough room for them. That ground will be so hot and hard for them to even get exercise from pacing. These are Tigers used to cold snowy climates. At least in New York they weren't being baked alive! Bring them somewhere else please!!!

    • @alekm804
      @alekm804 4 роки тому

      just wanted to say, if a tiger is pacing back and forth, this is an stereotypical behaviour. I know how it sounds but its BAD. Its when an animal does a cycle of the same movements/motions due to boredom and lack of enrichment. this can happen in any animal if conditions aren't met (eg horses due crib biting, and most others do swaying or head bobbing). so if you do see that... it shows how badly their environment or even care for them is

      If you look really close, you can see that the facilities are a work in progress. It's not finished yet. What do you think it would be the best thing to do? Return the tigers to the original place from where they were rescued?? Or keep them in their new home with a fricking pool?? The answer is obvious, but I'm not sure if you agree...

    • @ernestty8465

    • @ifawglobal
      @ifawglobal  6 років тому +5

      Hi Christian, we greatly appreciate your concern for these tigers. Tigers live in a wide range of habitats, from rainforest to dry deciduous forest to the open savanna, and are adapted to live in a wide range of climates. In short, captive tigers can be comfortable in almost any climate given the proper housing and care. Safe Haven cares deeply for the comfort of their residents and has provided pools, shade structures, and even some trees in and around their big cat enclosures. If you'd like more information, please see our pinned comment and be sure to visit Safe Haven's Facebook page for updates on the cats: facebook.com/safehavenwildlife/.
