Please help us! There are 80 tigers and leopards in Riverside County, CA being held by animal control. The plan, at this point, is to kill the animals. Please let your voice be heard and stop this terrible action! The animals are healthy and have not harmed another animal or a human being. If you would like to lend your support, please either fax California Governor Pete Wilson at 916-445-4633 or call his Riverside office at 909-680-6860. Or write to me at Liesl_Beneke@juno.com

I am in no way questioning the persons character or integrity. They should have used their name, and given the particulars. They may have a good reason for not doing so. Even though we have other addresses, including one at ciws@juno.com, we have a policy that we will always use our names.

I replied to you as the sender and the newsgroup. The header somehow came out to send to: ca.news and ca.politics I didn't notice it until I was reading what I had sent, as I try to keep a copy of most things. I apologize for again falling into someone's trap.

Are you insane? She used her name. If you'll look at the header I left above
you'll see it.

I have had it confirmed by the folks on Feline-L, the mailing list for captive husbandry of big cats, that the story is indeed true. The man who owns the animals is named John Weinhart, and he has gotten a reputation for taking in unwanted big cats, especially leopards. Most of the people on the list though, did not think the situation was as dire as it seemed to be portrayed. They said Weinhart has enough connections in the movie animal industry to find places for his cats. Cris Waller CrisW@ix.netcom.com "I refuse to have a battle of wits with an unarmed person"
