Three felids—Cesar, a male tiger; Cheyenne, a female puma; and Sasha, a female tiger—arrived at EFRC in November 2011 from Great Cats of Indiana, formerly known as Cougar Valley Farms, in Idaville. Great Cats had been under attack for years, accused of failing to provide “minimally adequate veterinary care to animals that were suffering.” Great Cats eventually lost its license and was forced to close.

Stephen’s Note: Cheyenne is a puma with an attitude. She specifically targets me and can pick me out of a large crowd. Felids can develop a bad attitude toward certain people for no apparent reason.
