The state of OH is at fault for apparently having such crumby laws and the person who let them out.
As for the remains, I think they should have gone to zoology/veterinary/research programs so that people could learn from them and hopefully have more of an understanding of their anatomy, medical needs, and nutritional needs. |
I think its just the initial reaction when you here so many animals some of them endangered in the world are killed because I wondered why there wasnt some ofther way also. But when you think what those police were faced with like they are inexperienced dealing with big wild animals, it was soon going to be night, how do you containt the animals in a timely manner, and if they wouldnt have acted the animals would have moved out to the populated areas they had no choice. It is just a bad and sad situation all around. i just love tigers and was so upset to hear so many were killed when there are only like 1200 bengal tigers in the world. The fault lies in the owner of the preserve and the loose regulations on the owners of exotic animals in Ohio
