A mixture of danger and lethal cuteness seems to override any questions people might otherwise have about best practices for captive wildlife.
Kentucky and Indiana may be neighbors, but the state line marks the divide when it comes to who can have a wild animal as a pet and who can’t.
A KyCIR investigation found that a Louisville-area nonprofit that houses wild animals has a troubled record; that state and federal officials have done little to address complaints; and the handling of lions and other exotic animals is potentially putting the public’s safety at risk.
