I would like to take this opportunity to share my support of the HSUS opposition to replacing the bengal tiger on Hawaii Island.
These are my added comments and sites found for added information.
1. The tigers are coming from Oregon. There is also an Oregon Tiger Sanctuary providing life long sanctuary to abuse and unwanted tigers. If we were helping that organization out, I would be proud. Here are links to both organizations. Please take the time and see which group you would like to be associated with. One is more money oriented, and the other more animal oriented, in my opinion.

2. If we acquire a white tiger it is a product of inbreeding. http://bigcatrescue.org/abuse-issues/iss...te-tigers/
http://bigcatrescue.org/contact-bcr/ is another source of information.
I too have enjoy zoos, but really it is not a necessity but an expensive inhumane luxury....our community has so many other needs....
more spay/neuter of dogs and cats for example !!
Aloha & Mahalo
