This winter has been as mild as I have ever seen it. TCWR staff has taken every opportunity to use the
good weather to move forward on the development of the property. Great progress has been made on
the newest three habitats. The first of the three was opened on Feb. 11, 2012. Thanks to all the sponsors,
volunteers, staff, and interns who have stepped up to help us get our recued animals out onto the 459
acres of land that we have to develop. Each animal deserves a life without pain and suffering. This
means that once they are rescued and brought into the refuge, that all their needs are met; veterinarian
care, food, fresh water, clean cage, shelter, and with your continued help, a big area where they all can
run and play. The calendar sales have also helped. Thanks to everyone that bought one or more. There
is not a better feeling than to be able to allow our animals the opportunity for enrichment in a big area.
This is our goal for every rescued animal. Of course saving their lives is the first priority.
Scott and Kyle have been working hard to revamp our website. The group effort on our Facebook
site is showing potential. 2012 adoptions, sponsorships and family memberships are available. Our
online sales of gift shop items have made getting your favorite souvenir easy and conveniently shipped
directly to you, or whomever you specify for us to send the items. Please sign up, share, and ask your
friends to share our information with their family and friends. Check it out!
I would like to welcome our newest group of interns and say thanks to our past group. You are all so
great. Please keep the refuge posted on your future endeavors.
In this newsletter you will find information on our 20th Annual Celebration! Those 20 years went
quickly! Mark your calendars and join us when you can. 20 days of celebrating TCWR’s first 20 years
of incorporation. There is still much more work to be done and we cannot do it without your help. Our
growth is exciting and I look forward to our future. Please continue to help where you can. Until next
time…

African Lion, Thor, Joins The TCWR Family
By:Kyle Jorgensen/Technical Assistant
On January 24th, we received a call from another big cat refuge in Texas. They had been contacted by a man from Virginia who had an 11
year old lion in need of a home. Because the Texas facility had no available space for Thor, TCWR was contacted. Thor was owned by a man
who raised exotic animals for TV, movies, and convention shows. He was starting to get out of the big cat part of the business and was slowly
finding homes for his lions and tigers.
Thor was one of the first to be given up by the owner because Thor’s mate had passed away a year previously, and Thor had been losing
weight ever since. His owner wanted to see Thor go to a facility that had other lions, with the hope that new lion friends could cheer him up.
Thor was originally purchased from a small zoo in New Hampshire when he was three weeks old. He spent a lot of time on movie and
television sets in his younger years as an acting lion; and then his later years were spent travelling around the country doing public appearances.
January 29th was to be Thor’s last public appearance. At the
end of the three day “Big Buck Classic” show in Little Rock,
AR, TCWR staff arrived to pick Thor up from the show and
bring him to Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge. Thor was
a travelling veteran, and the 4 hour drive home was easy
compared to what he was used to. Upon close inspection at
the refuge, Thor was found to have intestinal round worms
(which is probably why he was losing weight) and a problem
with his hind legs. We will keep you updated through our
e-newsletter as soon as the vet does a full check up.
Thor was visiting the “Big Buck Classic” Convention at
the Arkansas State Fairgounds in February. Promoters use
animals to draw people, which is illeagal in Missouri now.
The photo on the right shows Thor behind a people barrier.
After the show Turpentine Creek Staff transfered Thor from
trailer to trailer and headed for the hills of Eureka Springs.
Stop by the refuge to visit our newest family member, Thor.
Letter From The Curator
By:Emily McCormack/Curator
No winter blues here! We have been blessed with the mild winter weather so far this year. Generous donations and wonderful temperatures,
have allowed an enormous amount of progress. We are all so proud of the 3 new habitat enclosures being constructed.
The new interns have arrived and the training begins. This is the first time in many years that the weather has cooperated for their arrival. We
allow a two week overlap with our previous intern group, to ensure everything is maintained during the training period. It has been great to
see so many smiling faces and positivity flowing through everyone. It can be a sad time to say goodbye to the old interns, but everyone is so
excited about our accomplishments, especially the habitat openings, there have only been tears of joy.
Tears definitely streamed down my face as we moved Brody, Tigger G, and Ziggy to the new lockdown where they awaited their habitat
opening. As I remember when each of these cats arrived at the refuge, they were petrified to move into or out of the transport trailer. Watching
each of them load one by one into the trailer for their ride to freedom, the feeling of trust they had in us was remarkable. It is our goal after
rescuing, to ensure the animals feel safe and gain a trust in their caretakers. It is an extraordinary sense of accomplishment, not only to feel
their faith in us, but to provide them a piece of freedom.
Thank you to all the Fall 2011 Interns, who dedicated six months of their lives to the animals and assisted the staff in our mission. You have
all grown into tremendous individuals and you will be missed!

“THE POWER OF 20”
Be a part of TCWR’S 20TH BIRTHDAY celebration!
*April 19 to May 8, 2012
*(note the date change)
Kick off for the exciting 20-day fund raising events at the Refuge will include a ribbon cutting ceremony by the Eureka Springs Chamber
of Commerce at 7:30 p.m. on April 19 followed by The Lion King movie and popcorn in the front field. Bring a carload of friends, share the
donation of $5.00 per car, and enjoy the movie.
On Earth Day, April 22, there will be an informative presentation by Emily McCormack, TCWR Curator, at 10:00 a.m. and 2:00 p.m. If you
love to walk, sign up for the “Cat Walk” (people only) or the “Dog Walk” (where man’s best friend can participate) to be held at the Refuge
that same day. Ask your neighbors, family, friends, and club members to sponsor you for this fun exercise to raise money for the cats. If you
choose to go on the Cat Walk, you will be walking “the loop” around the habitats with other “human friends.” If you choose to do a Dog Walk,
you are welcome to bring your dog and walk the perimeter of the front field. In either case, walk as far as you can. Through the sponsors you
enlist to sponsor so much per loop completed you will make money for the Refuge and get your exercise for the day.
Save the date of Friday, April 20, for a very special Art Auction in Fayetteville. Artists from around the region will be donating artwork.
Proceeds from the auction will benefit Turpentine Creek so go and bid on your favorite pieces.
On April 23, a 20% off birthday sale in the gift shops highlights the incorporation of TCWR that happened twenty years ago on that date.
Two Brothers will be showing for movie night on Thursday, April 26, at 8:00 p.m. Fill your car and come on out.
Scheduled for April 28 is the “Alumni Pride” intern reunion. The buzz is that interns already have that date on their calendars! Call
everyone from your intern group and get your reservations early.
Those people who live in Madison and Carroll counties are invited to Customer Appreciation Days May 4, 5, and 6. Admission to the
Refuge will be free for them as a thank you for supporting us all year. A “Cougar Carnival” will be set up for all to enjoy.
During the Power of 20, an invitation will be extended to artists to come to the Refuge for “Art with the Animials.” They can bring their
special medium and paint, sculpt, or photograph during the day. For each creation donated and sold at the Refuge, artists are asked to share a
portion of the profit.
These are some of the activities planned. Watch for more details about upcoming events on our blog, in the newspaper, and on T.V. and
radio. Remember that our goal during this special time is to raise money for as many habitats as we can in honor of our 20 years of rescues.
You can help by volunteering or participating at events, visiting TCWR with friends and family, and sending in your contributions. Be creative
and think of ways your family can earn money to help support the animals. The Power of 20—20 friends, neighbors, and family working to
help the cats; 20 dollars your family raises; 20 cents from children in your child’s class; and gratitude twenty times over for the work the staff
does for the many animals at Turpentine Creek!
Help TCWR Increase Membership

Featured Cat - Kizi, A Bobcat
From Oklahoma!
Kizi is a bobcat who was born on 06/02/1996 and arrived
at the refuge on 10/01/1998. She came to Turpentine Creek
from Salpulpa, OK, through a private owner. She had lived
in the house with access to the garage. After two years of
trying, the owner (an 83 year-old woman) could not housebreak the bobcat. Kizi, like all wild cats, chose to mark her
territory thus making life unsanitary for the elderly woman.
She decided, after long deliberation with her grown children,
that Kizi would be happier with others of her kind. Kizi
was delivered to the refuge by her previous owner and her
children and has been a great addition to our ever-growing
family.

Volunteer Spotlight - Kyle Todd
Email: [email protected]
Jarrett Sweely/Staff Biologist
In this newsletter we are honoring one of our newest volunteers, Kyle Todd. Kyle lives in
Fayetteville, Arkansas, were he attends the University of Arkansas as a philosophy major.
He has been volunteering with us for about a year now, and has quickly become a staff and
intern favorite. Kyle always has a smile on his face and is willing to help us out no matter
what project we are working on.
Kyle started volunteering for us after his first visit to the refuge in early February of 2011.
During that initial visit he was shocked to see that we had rescued some of the animals he
had previously worked with a few years back. He did not know that those animals were
at the refuge and was extremely happy to see them being properly cared for. After talking
to some of the staff, he decided to start volunteering, and has been helping us every week.
Two of his favorite animals at the refuge are Flip, and Chuff, both of which he knew before
they came to TCWR.
When Kyle is not at the refuge volunteering he enjoys many of the outdoor activities that
the Ozarks have to offer. Some of his favorite activities are rock climbing, hiking, and
camping. He can also be found hanging out with our staff and interns after a long day of
work. If you see Kyle on your next visit at TCWR make sure to thank him for all of his
hard work and dedication in helping care for all of our amazing animals.
Thanks, Kyle, for all your help.

B.B. King and Mack enjoy freedom!
By: Ivy Cooper, Staff Biologist/Volunteer Coordinator
Habitat releases are the most exciting events that happen at the refuge
and B.B. King and Mack’s release was no exception! On a chilly
Saturday morning, all of the staff and interns and dedicated fans of B.B.
King and Mack gathered to watch their new adventure. B.B. King was
the first out of the door and Mack followed right behind; they both put
one foot on the ground and then they put their noses to the ground. B.B.
King saw all of the new toys that were placed in the habitat and Mack
followed. B.B. King went for a Christmas tree stuffed inside a giant
cardboard box and Mack went after a barrel. Both of the boys knocked
the toy over and then ran to find something else. B.B. King found the
bench in the habitat that had a boomerball and a “giraffe” (a cardboard
animal that the interns made for them to play with). He jumped on the
bench and then put his front feet on the new boomberball and let it roll
under his chest and just hung out there for a little while. He then found
the giraffe and immediately knew what to do, he swatted at it and then
pounced on the “giraffe.” Meanwhile, Mack found a bowling ball to
play with; he sniffed the ball and did what we call a “stinky face” and
put the ball between his feet. Mack decided to investigate a little more;
he didn’t make it very far before he decided to roll around on his back
in the grass. Everyone was taking pictures and were so excited that
B.B. King and Mack got to experience freedom. B.B. King began to
wander around and just check out his new space; little did he know that
Mack was watching him. When B.B. King finally realized that he was
being stalked, he took off running and Mack bolted after him. Mack
caught up with B.B. King and leap frogged over him. They both began
to run around and stretch their legs; they realized they had room to run.
It is so nice to see them relaxing and enjoying their habitat. Habitats are
so important for the animal’s physical and psychological health; please
donate to the habitat fund and give all the animals that find refuge here
their freedom!

the camera in the photo below. They love their newfound freedom.

Ziggy, Tigger G, and Brody Experience New Found Freedom
By: Steven Vargas/Staff Biologist
Since our last newsletter we have been very busy building three new habitats, all made possible by many generous donors. This massive
construction project began this past November, and on February 11, 2012, Ziggy and Tigger G, two tigers that were rescued from private
owners in Missouri back in 2008 were released into the first habitat. Both tigers ran around exploring the new sights and smells. Neither had
ever had the needed space to run, and Ziggy even showed signs of not knowing how. It was a very exciting day that carried over into the
next as we let Brody, a male African lion, out in the very same habitat. Brody was rescued in 2007 from a family in Missouri who went to an
animal auction to sell a pet monkey, and came home with a lion cub. Unlike Ziggy and Tigger G, when Brody was let out he spent most the
day marking his new territory, and stinky facing all the scents left behind by Tigger G. This habitat opening was dedicated to Hilda P. Jackson,
founder of Turpentine Creek, who passed away one year previously due to cancer. Without her strong will and love for animals the refuge
would not exist.
The second of the three habitats was made possible by the charitable donations of Fred and Sherry Sieber from Rogers, Arkansas. With the
frame work complete it is only a matter of time before Shelby and Sasha, two tigers rescued from Texas, and Jesse and Keesha, two tigers
rescued from Missouri call it home. As for the third habitat, we were able to pour the concrete for the lockdown; however, we are waiting on
the completion of the second habitat before we start the third. Habitat construction is usually a very long process that takes several months to
complete. Due the dedication of the staff, interns, and
many volunteers we hope to complete this project
within a few months. Once done the number of natural
habitats at the refuge would be 34, with a total of over
70 cats calling them home. It’s amazing watching
these cats running and playing in their habitats, and
if you haven’t experienced it yourself make sure you
come and visit these marvelous animals at the refuge.
Help us create these exciting moments for all of the
cats at the refuge by donating to our habitat fund.

Where’s the Beef (chicken, turkey, ...ect)?
By: Scott Smith/Vice president
Since 1995 I have been the Turpentine Creek Wildlife Refuge staff
member responsible for taking on the job of procuring meat for all the
needy cats in our care. During the mid 90’s thru the turn of the century,
meat was easily available and the number of cats at the refuge was around
70 (average). We were feeding about 90,000 pounds of meat per year.
The process that worked then was based on building and maintaining
relationships with people employed by large poultry producers in our
area. These relationships were maintained at the poultry plants themselves
and at third party freezer storage facilities in Northwest Arkansas.
Not long after Y2K, things began to change. This change did coincide
with the attack on our country on 9/11/2001. Almost immediately after
the attack, armed security guards appeared, making it very clear that
we must have an appointment to proceed to the offices where crucial
relationships were maintained and meat procurement for the animals
took place at the ground roots level. You know the importance of the
phrase “press the flesh?” That is how the food foundation for the animals
in our care was built and maintained.
Good things happen to people focused on a good, pure mission. This,
I believe because I have lived it, breathed it, and seen it at work time
and time again. While attending a company picnic for a local poultry
producer, I spent the better part 45 minutes talking to the CEO about the
mission of Turpentine Creek without knowing who he was. At the end
of the conversation the gentleman handed me a card and said he could
help me secure the meat necessary for the animals at the refuge. “You’ll
be gettin’ a call soon”, he said. A long two months later I received a
phone call from a woman asking me if I could use 20,000 pounds of
meat. After picking my jaw up off the floor, I graciously accepted and
inquired about pick up times and locations. After a brief conversation
about Turpentine Creek facts, the call ended with the woman saying,
“just give me a call if you need any more meat.” This phone call set the
stage for meat for the animals until 2008.
Then another set-back…the fall of the U.S. economy. Large poultry
producers, pressured by industry wide initiatives to go “green”, found
creative ways to recycle the “seconds and distressed” products into
marketable animal feed products. Facilities were built nearby the
Refuge to accommodate the recycling, and the available meat for the
cats further diminished. Although this green initiative is great for the
meat by-products producers bottom line and the environment in general,
it has taken its toll on our ability to procure meat for no cost.
Dove-tailing perfectly with the poultry decline, was a meat procurement
program I helped develop through Walmart. As meat on the shelf
approached the expiration date, it was placed in a barrel in the back of the
stores for TCWR staff to pick up. This program lasted three years, after
which the contracts for handling all Walmart waste were lumped together
and sold to a company out of Texas. At this point the “sweet spot” began
to sour when all the waste products from every department within a
store were lumped together in one barrel. Processing the waste from
14 stores meant picking up approximately 40,000 pounds of product to
sift out 5,000 pounds of usable meat. This program started out great and
diminished to the point we could no longer handle the intense, laborious
task. We gracefully bowed out so that time could be spent taking care of
the animals. I must also say that during this time large poultry producers
started calling again.
Having kept my ear close to the beef and poultry industry for nearly
two decades, I learned a thing or two. One thing is that the rendering
companies (aka dead wagon) that used to service our area, quit.
Rendering companies responded to the calls of local farmers when one
of their herd died and they need it hauled off for rendering. When the
rendering wagon company stopped servicing our area, farmers were left
to the task of dispensing of the carcasses themselves. With over 115
carnivores to feed every day, my mind is always consumed with thoughts
like, “where is the next meal for the animals coming from?” It did not
take me long to figure this one out. I posted ads in two local papers.
Soon the calls came in and we were picking up cows and butchering
them for quality, fresh, red meat. Now we face another problem…
The cattle industry is ever changing. We get calls for cattle from local
farmers and they seem to come in groups. Four one day, none the next,
two the next day, and so on. The fresh meat does not have a good shelf
life and must be hung to solve the problem. We have another freezer
box for this purpose but we need a new refrigeration unit for it. $6,000
will purchase another refrigeration unit which will hold the temperature
at zero degrees Fahrenheit. The uncertainly in cattle acquisition makes
this avenue one part of the whole. To make up the difference, and have a
reserve on site, we have come to the conclusion that we need to buy meat
for the first time. At this time we do not have it in our budget to purchase
meat so we need your help. I’ve been hunting all over the Midwest for
meat sources and have come across a couple of choices. One choice
is buying chunked beef for $0.25/pound, plus shipping costs, from
Minnesota. Another choice is buying “seconds and distressed” chicken
(which we used to get for free) through local poultry producers. This is a
bidding process from a “hot sheet” which has us competing with some of
the nation’s largest food producers. The problem is, we have no budget
for this bidding procedure. We do need some meat to fill in the gaps.
We are looking for 12 dedicated supporters to help sponsor a month of
supplemental meat expenses. We currently estimate those expenses to
be $6,000 per month. Can you help? If so, please contact Scott Smith at
479-253-3318 or [email protected].

Taxes and Turpentine Creek
Bill Plummer/TCWR Board Chairman
Would you like to donate to Turpentine Creek and cut your tax bill? Here is how it works. For example, if you have $100 in taxable income
and you are in a 20 % tax bracket you would pay $20 in taxes. If you have $100 in taxable income, you are in a 20 % tax bracket and you give
the $100 to TCWR, then you would not pay the $20 in taxes. However, you must itemize your taxes to take advantage of this deduction. You
will have made a $100 tax deductable contribution and paid no taxes on that $100, so it really only costs you $80 to donate $100. But YOU,
decided where the $20 went, not the IRS. If you have any questions, see your tax advisor, and then donate to this non-profit organization!
