Subject: Re: [Phoenix_Exotics] Carol Baskin: Video of ShereKhan free

This leads me to believe that Carol is mis informing the public so that she can set the rules of owning exotics on her terms as other groups like PETA and HSUS are doing.

THEREFORE we must resolve an action that we as a group must stand up together to
fight off these vicious lies and mis information and to band together to help
those folks (NOT FIGHT AGAINST) who are at risk for having their animals taken
away and fight against laws banning or highly restricting exotic animals.

Why in the world are we not suing PETA and Carol for making up lies? funny but I
feel like we are getting walked over and stomped on. Are there any Legal Eagles
out there that can come up with some way to shut these organizations down?

I got the video from Z and I thank you. I see someone who is playing with SK

(for short) as a cub in a small water tub. Cubs are different from adults duh but in my humble opinion this animal not a candidate for removal from the property unless the rescuers and prove without a reasonable doubt (my grandfather was a municipal judge) that the cats where mistreated in any way

shape or form and given adequate care and security. From what I saw in this tape I saw a person playing with a cub more gently and caring than an adult mother tiger would. This leads me to believe that Carol is mis informing the public so that she can set the rules of owning exotics on her terms as other groups like PETA and HSUS are doing.

Companions, and who ever wants to see it email me privately and I will
send it to u so u can see how she is lying on her website. I don't know Dennis

she is saying on her website .
All I am interested is the truth, and all u breeders/dealers on this list,
see this story and be careful who u sell to, money is not everything, u need
to fight these lies some scamstuaries tell about their animals and how they
got them.U guys have USDA transfer papers, PROVE it how some sanctuaries

I just read what she had to say about Shere Khan on her website, this is the tiger featured in the video I have, Big Cat Companions that Carol and Don used to sell back then.
They show tiger on the tape, tiger looks great, they say they just got him a week prior making this tape from loving a home and that his 'only' problem was he was biting.

Then they admit this is their first tiger.Carol and Don obviously had no idea how to train a tiger , it is normal for young animals like this to be biting, but judging/looking at the tape Shere Khan was NOT bad at all. Dennis Hill needs to fight this accusations, using this tape would be a good start,the tape shows that 1 week after arriving to Carol his conditions was great, if he was as sick as carol claims on her website, he codln't look so
good on the tape, especially since she herself narrates it how loving tiger's previous home was,. Can u please fwd this email to Dennis? If Dennis is bad, carol needs real facts not lies to shut him down

Carole (Lewis) Baskin of Big Cat Rescue has recently sent out an appeal to shut down Shere Khan's breeder, Dennis Hill of Indiana. Shere Khan arrived at Wildlife on Easy Street as a cub in 1995. He is the star attraction at BCR. I hand fed him a couple of chicken legs back before they started using tongs. WHY the sudden campaign more
than 10 years later? What's the rest of the story???

Could you please copy the tape you speak of and mail it to me? I will be happy to pay you to do this. Carole is here in my area and her 'missing' ex was a friend. I have a file on her and we have been looking for a copy of this tape that she sold along with her book about keeping exotic cats as pets. She is buttering up all the local county commissioners and speaking out against us and we want to be able to show them her true character. Yes, of course people can 'change' but she has so much in her past that accumulatively you have to at least wonder about her credibility and character. Contact me at home please.

Dear Commissioner Hagan,

Please support the proposed rezoning application RZ 06-0115 for Big Cat
Rescue.

Carole baskins has used her cats for her own profit for years, she
threatened to kill her husband who was a millionaire and when he had
restraining orders put on her he dissappeared? Never to be found yet she
acquired his estate thoruhg what has been reported as a fake will. she
has been written up by the USDA for abuse of animals in her care and now
wants the public support? My God what a lot of nerve..

Why has her husbands dissappearance never been fully investigated?

Did the cats eat well in 1997:?

Thank you for considering my request that support Big Cat Rescue in their
rezoning application RZ 06-0115.

Sincerely,

Let's not forget that this self-righteous woman who speaks of ethics and morals is still the main suspect in the 1997 disappearence of her millionnaire husband, Don Lewis who has been declared dead, although his body has never been found. He filed for a restraining order (which was denied) after she threatened to kill him just weeks before he
disappeared!

She will blame all her previous breeding and selling for pets on Don, who conveniently isn't here to defend himself, but It was Carole who dealt directly with a local pet shop on buying baby bobs and servals.

Her website is full of lies about the origin and treatment of her cats as well as her rantings about other private owners, as many of her former volunteers can attest to. If anyone wants to read more on this hypocrite contact me privately.

Dear Carol, since (in my humble opinion) you happen to be one of the most
hypocritical&controversial person in exotic animal world, I have been watching you for a while, I remember your "guests sleeping with the big cats for lots of $$$ in your cottages " business venture to your selling horrible quality video tapes on how to breed and raise exotic cats pets ( YES, I own your tape) .

You bought and bred many exotic cats, you had a volunteer badly injured by leopard in 1998, so I don't understand what made you one day to turn around and become a god and 'non profit rescue' and criticize the rest of us ethical exotic owners. Remember the saying: people who throw rocks shouldn't live in glass houses? You have a very colorful past, not a very good resume for a wannabe preacher.

And while you criticize others, you have $50 dollars a head feed the tiger business venture http://www.bigcatrescue.org/feeding_tours.htm
with welded fence (4x4 inch?) where visitors can easily put there hand
inside the tiger cage during their feeding ? See the video:

http://www.tampabays10.com/aroundth ebay/aroundthebay_article.aspx?storyid=23

You criticize Phoenix members, while you yourself keep the animals in cages and engage in activities that can be dangerous and you do it for the entertainment/amusement of people who pay you.

When we invited you to speak at our Phoenix Exotics Las Vegas meeting this year, this was your reply (posted on our website with your permission):
http://www.phoenixexotics.org/p2006meeting.html
CEO of Big Cat Rescue an Educational Sanctuary Home ,Carole Baskin was also invited to be a Guest Speaker for the upcoming 2006 Phoenix exotics Annual Meeting. "Phoenix Exotics has long stood for everything that I oppose when it comes to ethics. I cannot imagine your group would invite me there for anything but a stoning. I speak for the
animals, not for the selfish people who would breed them for life in cages for their own
amusement, regardless of their lame justifications for it. "

Inbred Lions Shouldn't Be Glamorized

I am appalled at the ignorance behind the creation of such a film and those who would support it about how the white lions are produced. If the average person is equally uninformed then this sort of propaganda will surely lead to more suffering as all of the back yard breeders start trying to fill the new need for white lions by inbreeding their cats to the point of deformity and death.
