Tigers Among Us

We are devastated by what happened in Ohio yesterday. But we do not blame the legal authorities nor the lovely Jack Hanna. We blame people who buy & sell wild baby animals.

It is shocking to read about tigers in captivity in backyards around the States. We had no idea. Please click over to the
World Wildlife Fund to look at an interactive map with captive tiger population statistics. Follow the links to see what you can do to get this outrageous conduct under control. If people want a wild animal, they should adopt a little cat. We assure you, that is wild enough!
