The animals ... that's why we're here. We come down here three or four times a year. We've been bringing Megan since she was a baby.

They are still her animals, except those in legal custodial care.

I don't think there would be any problem from our standpoint with providing an export permit if the animals were going to a place that was suitable for housing the bears.

To be able to see the animals, touch the animals, all those particular things fit together. Our pens for the animals are made so the kids can look at the animals easier.

A lot of animals come to the shelter that are abused or starved. These animals will go to good homes where that won't happen again.

We recycle bottles and cans, and we have a lot of pets because we love animals. It's important to celebrate Earth Day so we can save everything and conserve.
