rio - arizona servals

The US Fish and Game Department in Arizona seized Rio, a male serval and two other servals. An unlicensed individual had several exotic cats confined to crates and was breeding them illegally.

Rio and his sister, Mesa, were just adolescents when they arrived at TWS. The three now live together in a large outdoor habitat with Rio's best friend, Nikko, a bobcat. Rio and Nikko have formed an unusual friendship for an African cat and a North American bobcat. They do everything together, play, sleep, and eat.
