Zoo Atlanta has a loose Tiger Rattle Snake that was in quarenteen. It is not one of their regular collection. It got loose in one of their none public Off-exibit buildings. Judgement call... if you had this happen would you notify guests? Zoo Atlanta decided not to and are taking a beating in the press for it (as everyone seems to when it comes to snakes).
