I would like it to be known that I am one of the co-authors of the bill, it seems to me that you are not reading this bill properly or you are misreading it. To clarify: Facilities like Shambala and Wildlife Waystation: infact all animal sanctuaries will have to be licensed just as the exotic pet owners would be. Shambala, Wildlife Waystation and many others already have had to obtain USDA licenses. The Sanctuaries that are not holding licenses will certainly have to do so.
As for the constant bashing of sanctuaries such as Wildlife Waystation. When you yourselves have to obtain your permits you will realize just how much goes into operating a facility as such, only yours will be on a smaller scale. Dont point the finger to often, you may well find yourself in the same position one day.
