  1. Big cat bit exotic animal owner in head, coroner says

    Neat page with more follow up information. Seems that after Terry Thompson, the asshole responsible for this tragedy, shot himself, a lion or tiger took a bite of him.. There are two 911 calls as well.

    "I tried to get Terry, but there's no answer"

    The animals now technically to his now ex-wife Marion. I don't think they ever got a divorce, just separated, but now the point is moot.

    I think we all agree this was a tragedy whether or not you believe it was unavoidable or not.. It seems like Terry had a history of animal negligence and the surviving animals should NOT be returned to his wife (out of town when this happened) and back to Muskingum County Animal Farm. I can see a legal battle ensuing over the remaining animals..

    Also, a map of current laws regarding ownership of exotic animals. I have a feeling that's going to change to mainly black. Since I live in PA, I may have time to pick up a Maltese tiger once I get my permit ;)

  2. I saw this shit! I'm only a couple hours away from there.
    How the hell does someone get all those animals?
    ...cause I want them 0_0
     
  3. Seems it only takes money and a vet visit in states like Ohio.

    FYI - don't try to steal a dead body of an exotic animal that's been shot by the sheriff, you'll end up in jail :p
     
  4. Man, seems like Ohio is the shit. I heard a car can pass inspection missing a door over there. Dunno if it's true, but it seems like anything goes in the buckeye state :smoke:
