Raja arrived with Luna on June 28, 2007. They were five years of age when they arrived and had poor mobility in their hind quarters due to an improper diet. They had lived in the bedroom of a house in Lincoln, Nebraska for all their life and had probably never stepped foot on grass before. After their owner passed away, the servals were found by the Police and Animal Control, who then confiscated the animals. The two were housed temporarily at Folsom's Children Zoo in Lincoln, Nebraska before coming to IEAS.
IEAS worked with Raja to get her on a normal, healthy diet with supplements to help her muscles develop properly. When she first arrived, she was very weak in her back legs and was not able to jump very well. After receiving the proper care and having room to move and jump, Raja is now walking and moving around better. She is able to jump up on the perches and into her house with more ease. Raja spends most of her time lying in her igloo. Help support Raja.
