WINNIPEG – A bobcat that’s been recovering from injury at a Manitoba wildlife centre, is back in its natural habitat.
Officials released “Amira” into the wild Thursday morning.
The female cat has been in the care of the Prairie Wildlife Rehabilitation Centre south of Winnipeg since last year. The centre held a fundraising dinner last spring to raise money for Amira’s care.
