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.
