Ronel Smuts is the manager of the Abu Dhabi Wildlife Sanctuary, financed by a local prince. Some animals arrive bone thin, others were abused, like a lioness whose teeth were filed down. Many arrive in the region via a black-market trade.

A lot of good things are happening in Dubai. I hope they become an inspiration for other countries in that part of the world.
