Lion May Tiger Finds New Life With Six-Person Family
In West Palm Beach a two year old tiger named Djanzi, once a Ft. Lauderdale house pet, is being integrated into a six-person family at Lion Country Safari after veterinary intake due to severe rickets from improper care. Bruce Grant says the animal shows how pets of big cats can falter without proper feeding. Djanzi has kept away from the other lions so far as caretakers evaluate his adaptation.
