Attorney: PETA worker neglected snakes in his care

[Bruce Whitehead]

They hide it well enough now, but PETA does not feel that animals that have had contact wtih humans are fit... they have been known to slaughter ex-pets that they steal. This is not a secret. They invest that money in walk in freezers and equipment to euthanize animals (healthy animals).

They are against all forms of animals having contact with humans. Anyone with a pet that supports them (90% of HollyWeird) are hyppocrits - as well as just super dim, as are they for employing the services of people like Pam Anderson, etc.

They make hyppocrisy an ugly art form.

Pam Anderson, as just one example, donated a Viper to them to auction for a fundraiser... the car had leather seats. They still took the cheque.

Force hibernating iguanas and turtles?

Indeed. And that was stated by an employee.... Makes me think that neither PETA nor Global are innocent in this case.

I don't like PETA or their practices but there were over 26,000 animals neglected in this case and there is no way one man could have done enough to care for them all. You also have no idea how much management pushed the employees so they may have been doing all they were allowed. It wasn't just the snakes in this man's care that were neglected.
They were breeding these animals and that is why they were trying to force hibernate them, undoubtedly these were instructions from managers to get the animals to breed.
Also this is the same company responsible for the MonkeyPox outbreak so the had problems before PETA got involved.

The monkey pox is a given.

Do you have any facts for the rest or are you just speculating?

If you have thousands of small animals like frogs or lizards or bugs it sounds like you have far more than if it were snakes or lizards. You can easily keep 10,000 spiders or frogs in a room that would not house 500 snakes.

Those guys have sucked for years but let's not add fuel to a fire until we know what's already burning.

Force is a bit harsh to say. In the controlled environment that we give reptiles you really have to bring them in or out of hibernation. If your corns are 86 degrees all year round nothin tells them to shutdown for winter unless you modify there habitat.

Man PETA really got some nerve. I'm surprised he complained about seeing some animals die with PETAs record.

I know more than I am saying but because of the court case I am not sure how much of it is allowed to the general public.

So, you're just speculating then.

Gotcha.

Gotcha.

It's not speculating, I know some things because one of the rescues I am involved with may get some of the animals if the animals are awarded to the state.

"may" "if"

Hmmmm, seems like speculation or the taking for fact the unproven.

So, you don't know anything for sure but you might know something later and you can't tell us what you don't know because it's a secret and HOW is this not speculating again?

Ever wonder how wild rumors get started?

[kazboots]

I do know that there were more than 26,000 animals that has been released to the public, there were wallabies, Hedgehogs, Chinchillas, sloths in addition to the reptiles and they were in significant enough numbers that one person could not have cared for them all. These animals require daily care more than a tarantula or even a snake requires.
And given other things that I Know I hope that the Judge awards the animals to the state, That is what the "if" was for, there is no guarantee the state will get them.
I have been given some information from the rescue but since it is not in the news stories, I don't know if it is supposed to be released.
The news stories do not tell everything and regardless of whether I agree with the methods used to bring the case to light, there where problems there.
