Well, now I'm upset. Why would you bring this up?

They are huge, but I would imagine that they'd need to keep rescues closer to the water and in more temperate climates. The Safari Park is super freaking hot most of the year given that it's so far inland. I believe most if not all of the Zoo's space is already accounted for given that I work and live fairly close to…

I've read a number of articles, particularly in the zoo arena in terms of "how can you support/oppose this but not that," and I think a lot of it comes down to personal philosophies honestly. There's definitely some middle ground on the captivity spectrum. I would imagine most vets would be opposed to SeaWorld and…

Because SeaWorld actually does a very good job of caring for their animals and they also put a lot of money and actual work into research and conservation?

I know a fair number of people in the zoo/aquarium/animal care world and those that I've spoken to directly have held firm on the high standards they saw at…

AZA has really strict guidelines for accreditation. It's more extensive than the general USDA Animal Welfare Act and Requirement. You can find a bunch of information on their website.

As long as you're also upset with the other 172 million that went to other AZA accredited zoos and aquariums.

It must be hard to never see animals in person.

San Diego Zoo doesn't have the capacity to take on the work that Sea World does.

Why should they? My guess is this is just coming up because someone is trying to cause drama and that her contract didn't include royalties (not surprising as it was a tiny part and an unknown actress).

It's fun when people don't read, right?

I agree that Lindsay garners a lot of unfair trash talk and I do actually hope for the best for her. I'd love to see her get clean (congratualations btw, 5.5 years is NO small feat and you should so proud!) and back on the screen. Still though, her drug/alcohol use and eating disorder(s?) have had a lasting physical…

Gretchen also wears hoop earrings. Every day. Because she can.

It's not bashing if it's true.

Right there with ya... I've wanted a reduction since I was 13 and a C (and unfortunately the ladies were not done growing).

You are not alone.

I'd be in the "not coming home for Christmas" camp if my sister got married December 15.

"Dude, I just saw all of you last week."

I support and acknowledge that craft stores must get a jump as the act of crafting takes time. However, I would say they should still have supplies available for last minute crafters and not totally move on.

So, "hot" has some clear indicators then... given the similarities here?

I want to believe so badly that this is a hoax and totally fiction just like the horror movies I watch because it is way too creepy to be real life.

Ditto. There will be no sleeping ever again.
