Animal rights organizations are not just against the Terry Thompsons. They may use the Terry Thompsons to further their means but they are not just against bad keepers. They are ultimately against all ownership and all use of any wild animals at the least and in some cases against ownership and use of domestic animals as well.

There is no such thing as a good keeper or a responsible keeper, in their mind when it comes to wild animals so there is nothing that can be done to please them. You could keep a 2 foot garter snake in a 20 foot long naturalistic cage with misters and timers and lights, etc. and feed it organically raised goldfish from your own outdoor pond and you would still not be a good keeper in their minds.
