I just finished reading 'Steve and Me' by Terri Irwin. It was a beautiful book, but there were some parts that were absolutely maddening.

     One part depicted the horror that takes place on alligator farms. Baby alligators are kept in tiny boxes in the dark and beat with sticks if they react to the light when they are fed. They are kept in tiny enclosures and stuffies (stuffed baby alligators) often have their eyes gouged out with screwdrivers.

     My goal is to help the rainforest, but I was absolutely disgusted horrified and infuriated at how people continue to be oblivious to animal cruelty.

      Please tell me about any new information you find or what you think about these awful acts.
