But I’m exhausted. Today the other half of my mouth had LANAP and it was less painful today, for a number of reasons, but it still wiped me out. I sat on Ben T. Davis Beach for 3 hours trying to re-center myself, but had to be home for a webinar on our data management tool. We are upgrading, and it’s going to be great, but it was really hard to focus. As soon as that call ended Howie led a call with Senator Portman’s staff about him being our Republican sponsor for the Big Cat Public Safety Act. His staff made it clear that they see Columbus Zoo (ie: Jack Hanna) as their “constituents”, so we are going to have to pull out all the stops to get people in Ohio to come out against cub petting. I think I’ll run our new anti cub petting video to Ohioans only and create a petition for Portman’s office. Photo was Mike Webber, Tim Harrison and Carole Baskin in the back of a D.C. cab filming for the CONservation Game.

 

Hi, I’m Carole Baskin and I’ve been writing my story since I was able to write, but when the media goes to share it, they only choose the parts that fit their idea of what will generate views.  These are my views and opinions. If I'm going to share my story, it should be the whole story.  The titles are the dates things happened. If you have any interest in who I really am please start at the beginning of this playlist: http://savethecats.org/

 

I know there will be people who take things out of context and try to use them to validate their own misconception, but you have access to the whole story.  My hope is that others will recognize themselves in my words and have the strength to do what is right for themselves and our shared planet.
