Thirty three lions rescued from starvation and mutilation working in circuses in Colombia and Peru are starting a life of 'freedom' in South Africa. They won't be let out into the wild but will now spend the rest of their lives in the Emoya Big Cat Sanctuary, after what's thought to be the biggest airlift of its kind. Savannah Heuser, founder of the Sanctuary told Akwasi Sarpong about the lions may be descendants of animals trafficked to the Americas many years ago.
