That or animal rights fueled propaganda...

Here is that link for facebook -

As I have stated on other lists, with Fred Kaufman as the series executive producer of these shows, nothing good will come of any of it. Its Animal Rights fueled propaganda, and nothing more. He serves on the advisory board of The Humane Society of the United States Hollywood Division.

Do you think that a channel that puts an animal rights organization like the HSUS in charge of programming has anything but animosity for exotic keepers? The whole point of "Fatal Attractions" seems from what I read about it to be aimed at attacking the very character of the people involved, and the character of exotic keepers in general. The more they can make us appear to be deviants, the less the public will take anything we say seriously. According to their "Human behavior experts" we all keep animals because we have EGO problems, our interest in them as animals comes second to that.

Having yet another organization (http://www.cwapc.org/ - more of the "we can keep them, but you can't because we are special" "animal rescue" crowd) that wants to see the end of animal keeping as their "professional" for the show doesn't hurt your cause either.

Steve would be rolling in his grave...It makes one wonder, how Wes, Terri & Bindi and the rest of them over at the Australian Zoo would feel about this garbage, and the direction Animal Planet has gone?
