Colorado big-cat sanctuary closing, animals need food money
 

I seldom cry when I open my mail, and I've never before hit up
strangers for one of my favorite charities. But this is a desperate
case.

The Wild Animal Sanctuary in Keenesburg, Colorado, (formerly The Rocky
Mtn. Wildlife Conservation Center) is going down the tubes after 27
years of caring for thousands of lions, tigers, and other large
predators rescued from private collectors, overcrowded zoos, carnivals,
etc. It will close to the public on Sept. 2.

The short story is that donations have been diverted to large-scale
human tragedies in recent years (i. e., tsunami, Katrina), and the
sanctuary is now too deeply in the red to recover. It has to close.

New homes are being sought in other sanctuaries across the country for
155 animals. But if food money runs out before all animals are placed,
some will have to be put down.

Please, do whatever you can to help keep keep these animals alive until
new homes can be found for them.

I'd like to put one of those tigers up. On my wall.....(or on the
floor in front of the fireplace, the better to **** on).

If you really knew anything about big cats you'd know they are actually
cheap to feed because they eat rotten and spoiled meat that otherwise
would have to be disposed at considerable cost. They will also eat
roadkill deer and many states will issue special deer tags enabling
groups to bag whitetail deer for this very purpose. And if there were
lions or captive bred hybrid tigers that DID need putting down, pelting
them and eBaying the hides and claws would finance the others very
well.

The big expense is dealing with the ****, and liability insuraance for
the volunteers.
