I have done a lot of research. You have a lot of misinformation out there that is actually garnering animosity towards anyone that is working and striving for that ultimate goal of replenishing the native lands of these big cats with some of the gene pool from here in the United State
As everyone knows Mystic Jungle is committed to the conservation and preservation of the Asian Leopard. In order to diversify the gene pool it is necessary to “line share” with other facilities. Our very own Sampson is on loan to Single Vision Inc to breed with the female
As many know here at the Jungle, even though we offer help, consultation, and homes to all native and exotic wildlife, our main focus is on the Asian Leopard. A decade ago, in India, the population of the Asian Leopard was over 8,000. Today there are less than 1,200 left on preserves
We are focusing right now as our number one priority to enlarge Spikes and the boys enclosures. The money that was made at the yard sale, after insurance and food costs will be set to the side to start getting the supplies. Even if we have to get a few posts at a time, a few rolls of

Be sure to watch the videos on our You Tube Account to get those ratings up there! The more we let people know what is happening to these big cats the better chance we have at their survival! Just copy and paste the links to view!! More to come of the facility itself and the residents
I often sit and wonder how in the world did I end up where I am now. Born in a small town in Florida, the sixth generation Floridian, and my father one of the original “Florida Crackers” driving cattle across the unfenced lands of Florida, I was raised to be a “cowgirl”. I did the g
The Asian Leopard The Asian Leopard is in dire need of our help. The figures are in for 2012 and it is alarming. The leopard in India is being killed off at the rate of 4 a week/208 a year. Take this into consideration. A leopard reaches sexual maturity at the age of 18 months to 24 m
I have no words. This, no matter how many ways I look at it, disgusts me. I support legal hunting. My father was a hunter, my cousins, my whole family hunts. But there is a big difference between hunting for meat and the skin for clothing, than for hunting to say and show you can kill
