Anti-Zoo Extremists Go To Washington?
On July 26th, anti-zoo extremists based at the Animal Welfare Institute announced new and extreme legislation that targets the marine mammal community. The bill titled the “Strengthening Welfare in Marine Settings (SWIMS) Act would phase out the keeping of cetaceans in human care for any purpose. The animals targeted in the bill include killer whales (orcas), beluga whales, pilot whales, and false killer whales by forbidding facilities from ever raising them under their care. This includes breeding them, transporting them to other facilities, and housing them for public display. While it allowed existing facilities to continue caring for the animals who live under their care, it would force them to phase out their animal programs.

Country living it's what I love. I raised my family in Arroyo Seco, and now I'm enjoying life out here in Elkhorn along the coast of the Monterey Bay. I'm tucked right in the middle of ten minutes from the beach and ten minutes from our local shopping center. Life couldn't be any better than that. Unless you have to walk that country Blvd at 7 am in pink rubber boots while carrying a bucket of grain to fetch two cows who are out on the road, two cows from a herd, you told your neighbor, "yes, I can feed them for two days while you are out of town."

Observing a dog is educational. Dagney teaches me something new every day when I take time to watch and interpret her behavior. Of course, my interpretations could be all wrong. It’s not like a dog has the ability to correct my assumptions, but that doesn’t make the lessons less valuable.

Matthew AngeloPublished 2 years ago in Petlife"Catfish" as a Pet
I have an algae eater fish that looks like a catfish. She is huge as you can probably see. She sharp pins or spikes in her fins as her defense. I know this because she had accidentally flipped herself out of the aquarium before one day. Luckily she was soon put back in the tank with no harm done. She was fine.

To Scott Ross, My name is Jenna Costa Deedy and I am a SeaWorld-Busch Gardens Adventure Camp Alumni from 2006 until 2010. As a camper at Busch Gardens Tampa Bay and at the SeaWorld Parks in Orlando and San Antonio, I got to learn about and work with a variety of animals from terrestrial birds and mammals such as parrots, giraffes, gorillas, and rhinos to several species of marine animals such as sharks, stingrays, dolphins, penguins, and orcas. In addition, I was lucky enough to work alongside various zoo and aquarium professionals who served as my mentors through college.
