Inhaltsangabe

This is the true story of Moka the tiger cub, his rescue from wildlife traffickers, and the people--and tiger friend--who would help save him.

When Moka was just a few weeks old, wildlife traffickers tried to smuggle him into the United States from Mexico. Thanks to a US Customs and Border Protection officer, Moka was discovered on the floor of the car and rescued. The tiger cub was taken to the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, where he was raised alongside another young tiger cub, Rakan. Moka and Rakan spent their days wrestling and playing with each other. But being born into the world of wildlife trafficking would soon bring some unexpected health challenges to Moka.

Saving Moka is part of the award-winning Hope and Inspiration series, which includes true stories of animals who faced--and overcame--challenges at the San Diego Zoo.

Über diesen Titel

Über die Autorin bzw. den Autor

When Georgeanne "George" Irvine was a child, she slept with a dozen stuffed animals on her bed--a lion, two teddy bears, a tiger, a monkey, and more. It was indicative of what was to come: a lifelong career at the San Diego Zoo as a champion for wildlife and conservation as well as an author of two dozen children's books about animals. Photographing and learning about animals in their native habitats are passions for George. Her worldwide adventures have taken her to many of the wildest places on Earth--from the jungles, mountains, and forests of Asia and South America to the savannas of Africa as well as the Outback of Australia. George has devoted more than 40 years of her colorful career to the San Diego Zoo and San Diego Zoo Safari Park, where she is director of publishing.
