Description
Snow Leopard
Solitary and secretive
Creature of courage and survival
When you reveal yourself
So rare and precious
In reality or in vision
It is a message to
Clear out the demons of the mind
To embrace new life and new perceptions
For you are the spirit of strength
And the promise of the future.
This beautiful snow leopard, Hercules, was brought to Big Cat Rescue so that the cycle of inbreeding could be controlled. Big Cat Rescue believes that no wild cat should ever be bred to live in a cage. However many are, and when the bloodlines become too inbred, the cats must be moved, to insure their survival. It is the goal of this wonderful organization to treat all the big cats with respect and caring, to give them a good life and protect their future, and to celebrate these precious gifts of nature.
