The woman behind the sanctuary
In 1991, Linda Tucker was an advertising executive visiting South Africa's Timbavati region when her group was stranded at night among a pride of lions. A local medicine woman, Maria Khosa, walked them all to safety.
That night changed her life. Linda left advertising and spent nearly ten years learning about the white lions of Timbavati, both the science and their deep cultural meaning. In 2002 she founded the Global White Lion Protection Trust, which now protects white lions in their natural home on about 12,300 acres of the Greater Timbavati. She tells the story in her books, including Mystery of the White Lions and Lionhearted Leadership.
