~~~ Shame on you, Louisiana: Free Tony the Tiger From His Truck Stop Cage!!! ~~~ | |
| NorwegianLady Offer Upgrade  User ID: 1183706  Norway12/04/2010 11:06 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Why do we allow animal cruelty to continue...?!  This is the e-mail I received from Care2, please act: Tony the Tiger has lived for 10 years in a chain link and concrete enclosure at a truck stop in Louisiana. But Tony isn't living, he's suffering: [link to www.care2.com] At the truck stop, Tony is subjected to constant harassment, noise, flood lights, and exhaust fumes in a space no bigger than a couple parking spots. Tony's owner is allowed to keep Tony in such inhumane conditions because the Louisiana Department of Wildlife and Fisheries (LDWF) gave him a permit to do so. Tony serves as a truck stop attraction, and his only protection is a cage and a sign asking people not to throw things at him. Help free Tony! Tell the LDWF not to renew the permit that keeps him at the truck stop!!! [link to www.care2.com] Thanks for taking action!

Kind of shameful to lock up an animal like this. I don't even go to zoos or circuses for this same reason. Hope they do the right thing and let him go to a sanctuary. I got two guns, one for each of ya. |
| NorwegianLady (OP) User ID: 1183706 Norway12/04/2010 11:53 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | They've had another tiger before - who died of unknown reasons. Don't let this happen to Tony..!!!  Animal abuse always breaks my heart...  "Until one has truly loved an animal, part of their soul remains unawakened." Can be reached here: helheten(a)msn.com |
