Condor Ferries has leapt to the aid of the Born Free Foundation to help with a mercy mission to rescue a pair of five month old Lion cubs called Marina and Sarnia who were found abandoned and close to death in Romania late last year.
Originally the Foundation flew the Lions to an Animal Shelter in Guernsey where they were nursed back to health. Last week the cubs were declared fit travel and started the first leg of their journey to a new life on a wildlife reserve run by the Foundation in South Africa. The Lion cubs took Condor's fast ferry, the Condor Express for the first leg to Weymouth before going onto Heathrow's Animal Reception Centre and then flown to the Shamwari Wildlife Reserve in South Africa.
