Register Dangerous Wild Animals in Texas
- da: Animal Advocates
- destinatario: Texas House of Representatives- Chair Ryan Guillen, Vice-Chair Dawnna M. Dukes, Jimmie Don Aycock, John Kuempel, Lyle Larson, Poncho Nevarez, Wayne Smith
If HB 629 passes, the pulbic and law enforcement will not know who owns wild animals such as lions, tigers, cougars, leopards, cheetahs, jaguars, bears, coyotes, hyenas, jackals, baboons, gorillas, etc.- or where the animals are kept. The bill will exempt the facilities such as roadside zoos, certain private animal collectors, and substandard wildlife sanctuaries where the vast majority of dangerous wild animals are being kept.
Keep the Dangerous Wild Animal Act and oppose HB 629 which does not have the public's best interest in mind; but caters to a handful of people with special interests who want to be exempt from registration. Since the passage of the DWAA, the public has been protected and there have been no known attacks on the public. Prior to the Dangerous Wild Animal Act, there were numerous maulings and deaths. Oppose HB 629 and require owners to register their wild animals.
