Yes,we found it to be exceedingly odd that Mr. Carlton would not welcome the ******* animal activists.We to were willing to be "educated".But luckily we managed even without his help.My daughter was educated as to how low humans could sink.Not just the ones doing the exploiting,but the gibbering crowds around the cages.How can any adult,animal advocate or not.Look at this half mad pacing.And then pay $30 to have their picture taken with it?
