I wouldn't be surprised if the reason we haven't seen any new specials featuring Terri, Wes or the Australia Zoo is that Animal Planet either dropped them, or they dropped AP.

Considering Terri rehabilitated Mountain Lions, and Steve kept exotics all his life...I would imagine that they would promote PROPER care and respect for these animals, not an all out ban.

Not to criticize other creatures or their keepers, but I think more focus needs to be directed toward invasive mammalian and bird species. Reptiles can only survive in very specific climates.... mammals and birds are quite a bit more versatile.

Has anyone tried contacting Australia Zoo? With such a huge problem facing the reptile industry...I would be curious to see if they would make a statement, or possibly aid USARK in their efforts? I'm sure Steve would have.

I am emailing Discovery & joining that FB group as I type!
