From the Staten Island Zoo: The
Jesusita Fire in Santa Barbara , CA last week caused these two to take
shelter together.
The fawn is 3 days old and the bobcat about 3 weeks.
The fawn came from somewhere in the fire and the bobcat from
Carpentaria. They immediately bonded and snuggled together under a desk
in the Santa Barbara County Dispatch Office for several hours.
They rescued the fawn during last weeks wildfire. Although wild animals, especially of separate species, are never placed together due to regulations, in this emergency situation, they had no choice. During the mayhem of the fire, they were forced to put animals anywhere they could, since they had run out of crates large enough for the fawn.
The
kitten ran to the fawn, and it was instant bonding.
