Oklahoma has always been a little loose on permits for large carnivores. That’s how all this happened. So, we would just try to discourage people in pursuing it simply because we weren’t a source, we would tell ’em right up that we’re not a source and we’re not gonna be part of this pursuit because we don’t agree with it. It takes a lot to maintain these animals, it’s not in their best interest for them to be in private hands. And we pretty well would kill the information in their pursuit, at least involving us at that time. Many people, you’re never gonna change their mind. They think they’ve gotta have it. And when you find out how many exotic animals are being kept in private hands in the city of Oklahoma City, many of which are very, very dangerous, including hot snakes, it’s alarming.
