This is the life-affirming moment Mufasa the mountain lion is finally freed from the cruel clutches of a circus.\r
\r
The majestic creature lived in capacity for 20 years, chained up in the back of a pick-up truck amongst rusting equipment.\r
\r
Even though wild animals are banned from circuses in Peru, Mufasa went undetected as the troupe moved between villages.\r
\r
Then wildlife officials and Animal Defenders International staged a dramatic raid involving an eight-hour armed stand off.\r
\r
But, with the help of riot police and a public prosecutor, they broke the elderly big cat free from his shackles.
