It’s 2023 now. Twenty-two years ago, police went into a house to catch a criminal. In the house, they came across three afraid and weak animals. They certainly didn’t belong in anyone’s home.

The African lion, Leo, had been in a small box with an open wound(伤口) on his face. Shere Khan, the Bengal tiger, was thin and weak, and the black bear, Baloo, was hurt. Their trauma was finally over. The police took them to Noah’s Ark Animal Sanctuary — an animal rescue(救援机构) . There, they’d spend the rest of their days.

“When they were first brought to the animal rescue, Baloo, Shere Khan, and Leo were injured, afraid and clinging(紧靠) to one another,” keeper Allison Hedgecoth said. And as they got more comfortable, they played together and became good friends. For 15 years, Baloo, Leo, and Shere Khan lived, slept, and ate in the same area. They have lived a really happy life there.

Leo died in 2016 and Shere Khan died in 2018. Baloo was there for both of their burials. Everyone at the animal rescue is sad about their deaths. However, they find a feeling of comfort in knowing they gave all three a fantastic life together. And they’re making sure Baloo knows he isn’t alone.
