Last Friday, a 66-year old woman was charged with two accounts of animal abuse. Many different shelters saved more than 200 dogs, 1 cat, and a Bengal tiger from the woman's property. In late 2007, the woman was charged with 1 misdemeaner for having a little over 150 dogs in her house. She told authorities that she wouldn't breed again. Yeah right...
The dogs were found living on feces and urine, with skeletal remains of dogs and puppies in dog food bags. The tiger was extremely malnurished and it's paws were infected due to living conditions. The tiger is now at the Springfield Zoo to get healthy again. And the dogs are being held at the St. Louis Humane Society.
Well, this is wierd, I think. No one should have any type of exotic animal, wether it's a tiger of a chimpanzee. And also, no one should have more than about 4-5 dogs. It's just not right. Anyone with that many animals should own a zoo, not just a regular home.
