Big Cats Space

This is a follow up post from a comment about the space a big cat needs.

Wild cats territory is measured in miles. All to often we see big cats in zoos with little space. No matter how big a zoo, there is no way to compare to the miles a big cat has in the wild. The USDA states that the animals needs to be able to turn around, stand up, and cage kept clean. I don't know about any of you, but this is horrible that these beautiful wild creatures can legally be kept in the manor. One article I found about caging states that in a place in Florida, a 600lb tiger was kept in a 12ft by 15ft cage! This treatment makes me sick and want to do everything I can to change the laws.
