85The Zanesville Ohio Massacre: The Real “Ticking Time Bomb”
The Humane Society is urging the public to ban privately owned 'exotic' animals as they've also done, but now they are suggesting that owners of dangerous exotics will follow in Terry Thompson's footsteps. Should a federal ban be in order to prevent another such catastrophe?

Is Big Cat Rescue a crusader for captive big cats, or may there be two sides to this story? Interesting information about BCR's founder Carole Baskin, and what may truly be at the heart of the sanctuary's politics.
