Held As Prisoner
Sheila had, unfortunately, spent the majority of her life in Texas as a prisoner. She had been an industrious lioness since she was a little cub. Her first job in the media was as a cub in picture shoots. Despite the fact that Sheila was born in the wild, labor dominated her domestic life, negatively impacting her health and well-being.
Out Of Harm
Sheila couldn’t stand up straight because of her balance and coordination issues. Her muscles were weak, making it difficult for her to walk, as the rescuers discovered. She could scarcely lift her chin off the table to eat or drink. She was dying of hunger and had lost all interest in anything.
