The Wild Animal Sanctuary in Keenesburg, Colorado rescued 25 lions from traveling circuses in Bolivia in late 2010.  The sanctuary built compounds to hold all of the rescued lions and is now in the process of building a catwalk to lead visitors from the older lion habitats through the black bear, wolf and tiger habitats to the new lion compound.  The metal walkway ranges from 22 to 40 feet high in the air.  The sanctuary expects the metal walkway to be completed by the end of the year and it will eventually lead to an elevated 4,000 square foot platform in the new compound.
