Tippi Hedren went from starring in Birds to caring for cats.
The actress founded the Shambala Preserve, a home to tigers, lions and other big kitties that include Michael Jackson‘s Thriller and Sabu tigers.
Hedren’s life with big cats started in the 80s when she produced and starred in the film with African Lions, Roar, inciting her interest in the giant creatures.
Hedren was recently honored with the Lifetime Achievement Award at the Humane Society’s Genesis Awards.
“It’s such a gift to have a mission that you feel really strongly about,” Hedren says in the video.
More information on the Shambala Preserve can be found on its website.
