They’re animal rights groups and they’re animal rights groups. Some of them are well intentioned, but create problems. Some of ’em are well intentioned and help with animal welfare. I’ve always tried to work first with the groups and if they took what I thought were unreasonable or made, what were unreasonable demands, then I’ve opposed them. I myself belong to the ASPCA. I believe primarily with the work that they do with animal control, with spaying and neutering of dogs and cats and helping provide homes for animals in need are extremely worthwhile. And it’s something our society needs to be suing. Some of the other animal rights groups though that oppose holding animals in captivity across the board, I have been adamantly opposed to, because I think there are some instances where having animals in captivity, exotic animals or wild animals in captivity are beneficial in the fact that they serve as ambassadors for the animals in the wild.
