We MUST save Boomerang! (not Bloomberg!!)

Where's the love for lion cub? Ask the Post

Baby Boomerang was missing the mother he'll never see again - forced to make do yesterday with stuffed animals and heating pads.

Two days after a New York Post reporter dumped the lion cub at an animal sanctuary in a cruel stunt, Boomerang was still struggling to recover from dehydration and possible pneumonia.

"He cuddles up to stuffed animals. I'm sure he's used to lying with his sister, next to his mother," said Ellen Whitehouse, director of Noah's Lost Ark sanctuary in Ohio. "Stuffed animals are the best I can provide for him."

Help save Boomerang!

It's going to take a lot of tender loving care to nurse little Boomerang back to health.

Noah's Lost Ark animal refuge, which relies on volunteers and donations to scrape by, said it will need $10,000 just to build the lion cub a habitat — and thousands more for food and medicine.

The Daily News is asking its readers to pitch in to help save Boomerang. Checks can be written out to the Noah's Lost Ark Animal Fund and sent to: Farmer's National Bank of Canfield, c/o Noah's Lost Ark Animal Fund, 20 South Broad St., Canfield, Ohio 44406.
