Replying to @80_mvsic_ If you missed the TikTok LIVE, here is an update on the three tiger cubs born with clubfoot after their mother was rescued from Tiger King Park. Thanks to the pioneering efforts from our partner @turpentinecreek these cubs are thriving today! #TigerKing #GivingSeason #GivingSzn #AnimalRescue #BigCatsOfTikTok

This pregnant tiger was rescued from Tiger King Park, and when her cubs were born, their rescuers discovered they had club foot and would need a lot of help.

The rescue immediately got to work to help the cubs. Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge worked with them every day by doing physical therapy with hot water and massaging their legs. They worked to warm up their ligaments and stretch their feet into the proper position. For nearly two months, twice a day, they worked with the cubs and then would return them to their mother. @ifawglobal said in the TikTok video that the mother became very comfortable with the situation. Every day, the cubs got stronger and stronger and were making tremendous leaps and bounds.

The last clip of the viral TikTok shows the cubs and their mother today. The cubs are full-grown, healthy, and happy all because they were rescued and got the help they needed from @ifawglobal!

Recently, in huge news, Congress passed The Big Cat Public Safety Act, which bans private possession, and public contact and increases restrictions on the breeding, trading, and exploitation of big cats in the United States. For years the government failed to help big cats and enact legislation needed to stop the suffering of these animals. This bill is a step in the right direction.
