We call on the private ownership of big cats to be banned!

It is believed that over 10, 000 big cats (including lions, tigers and leopards) are kept as pets or live confined in roadsize zoos solely in the United States. Yes, 10, 000! I find this unacceptable and I am asking everyone for your support to ensure these majestic creatures live the life they deserve and are no longer exploited for fame, glory and money!

While some US states have declared the private ownership of these animals as illegal, other states have failed to take similar measures. In fact, there are no protective measures whatsoever.

Keeping these beautiful creatures, who are predators by nature, confined into a zoo or a home (no matter how big it is) is something that cannot be allowed, particularly in the US, the most developed country in the world.

 
 

Big cats certainly deserve better than this, they deserve to be happy in their natural habitat. Please support my campaign and urge the members of Congress to draw up a bill to eliminate all loopholes in the current legislation and impose a nationwide ban on the private ownership of big cats as pets or as entertainment props.

Thank you so much for your care and attention.

For years now, NBA has been coming to Europe for regular season games. However, 2012 was the only year when two games were played; in all the other years, only one game was played, at the O2 Arena in London, usually on a Thursday sometime in January. I have been to every game in London and, without a doubt, it was...
