Sampson Nickname: Sammy Species: Panthera Leo - African Lion Sex: Male Born: 7.26.2000
Sampson came to the CARE family at 12 weeks of age. He was plagued with a horrific condition caused by a “Vitamin A” deficiency. The condition has unfortunately become more common in African Lions in recent years. Symptoms include lack of coordination, disorientation, seizures, and eventual death caused by neurological swelling, if gone untreated. Sampson was immediately placed on a program of Vitamin A & D injections. The treatment lasted months. With great pride we are pleased to announce Sampson has been symptom free since he was one year old. He is the “Pride” of CARE.
