Wow,
Sad to say the main points I got from that was that he doesn't want it to affect him and any other zoos. Didn't get a whole lot of concern shown for anyone who isn't a zoo.
And what was the wisdom of repeating the false and idiotic fears on a news broadcast without actually debunking them!?!?
The interviewer did say it was on short notice so I can only hope they simply caught him off gaurd and didn't give him time to marshal his arguments.
