I THINK, YOU KNOW, PEOPLE DON'T REALIZE

THAT, UH, YOU KNOW, ANIMALS,

YOU KNOW, THEY--

WE'RE ALL CONNECTED TOGETHER SOMEHOW.

I SIT THERE AND TALK TO HIM

AND PET HIM AND HUG ON HIM.

BUT, YEAH, IT'S SOMETHING SPECIAL, THAT.

Harrison: YEAH, I'VE ALWAYS HAD THIS UNIQUE...

I DON'T KNOW IF IT WAS AN ABILITY

OR UNDERSTANDING OF BEING AROUND THESE ANIMALS

THAT, UH, I THINK I CAN FEEL THEIR VIBE

COMING OFF OF THEM.

IF THEY'RE SCARED, I READ THEIR BODY LANGUAGE.

[ lighter clicks ]

YOU SPEND... SPEND THAT MUCH TIME,

AND, UH...

I'VE BEEN AROUND, YOU KNOW,

BEARS AND TIGERS AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

LIONS, BY FAR, HAS BEEN...

HAS BEEN, UH...

ONE OF THE BEST ANIMALS I'VE EVER OWNED IN MY LIFE.

Harrison: BASICALLY, I WAS TAKING IN STRAYS.

MOST PEOPLE TAKE IN DOGS AND CATS.

I WAS TAKING IN LIONS AND TIGERS

AND PYTHONS AND ALL KINDS OF CRITTERS,

YOU KNOW, AND THEY WERE COMING FROM ZOOS

THAT DIDN'T HAVE THE MONEY TO TAKE CARE OF THEM AT THAT TIME,

OR PEOPLE THAT, UH, HAD BOUGHT A PET

THAT THEY COULDN'T CONTROL AFTER A YEAR OR SO.

THEY GOT TOO BIG FOR THEM,

AND IT WAS GETTING OUT OF CONTROL.

Terry: I CAUGHT A LOT OF FLACK OVER...

HAVING A LION IN THE HOUSE.

I-I WAS, UH...

THEY'D SAY I WAS BRAIN-DEAD,

I WAS SELFISH,

I WAS IMMATURE...

PLAIN STUPID.

PEOPLE WEREN'T GONNA COME AROUND,

AND LO AND BEHOLD, EVERYBODY COME AROUND.

Harrison: BUT THE ONE, YOU KNOW, THE CAT THAT I REALLY,

I WOULD SAY, BECAME MY FAMILY,

WAS ONE OF US, WAS TABITHA, THE AFRICAN LION.

AND TO BE THERE AND LAY ON THE FLOOR

AND HAVE ONE LICKING ON YOUR HEAD...

AND I'D CHEW ON HER NECK,

AND SHE'D LAY THERE PERFECTLY STILL,

FULL-GROWN AFRICAN LIONESS LAY THERE,

AND IT'S ALMOST LIKE A FAMILY CONNECTION.

IT JUST BROKE MY HEART WHEN I HAD TO GIVE THEM UP.

Terry: FINALLY THERE COME A TIME WHEN I HAD TO PUT THEM

DOWN THERE IN A PEN, AND, UH...

THAT ROAR AT... LATE IN THE NIGHT...

LIKE HE WAS LONESOME.

HE WANTED YOU TO COME DOWN. HE WANTED...

IT WAS LIKE HIS WAY OF SAYING,

"MAN, WHAT DO YOU GOT ME IN HERE FOR," YOU KNOW?

"WHAT'D I DO?"

"I'M IN THIS LITTLE PEN."

YEAH.

[ dial tones ]

Radio: EMERGENCY CHESTNUT, 33.

MY NAME'S TIM HARRISON. I'M A PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICER

FOR THE CITY OF OAKWOOD, NEAR DAYTON, OHIO.

AS A PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICER, WE'RE KIND OF UNIQUE.

THERE'S ONLY A FEW PLACES LIKE IT IN THE WORLD.

WE'RE POLICE OFFICERS, FIREFIGHTERS,

AND PARAMEDICS ALL WRAPPED INTO ONE.

WE DO ALL THREE JOBS.

WE'RE HEAVILY TRAINED TO DO THAT.

YEAH, WHEN I STARTED AS A POLICE OFFICER IN THE EARLY '80s,

YOU KNOW, I WAS STILL CATCHING EXOTIC ANIMALS.

I GET, YOU KNOW, A PYTHON HERE OR THERE OR A TIGER.

I'D AVERAGE ABOUT FIVE OR SIX A YEAR.

BUT WHEN REALITY TV STARTED IN THE '90s,

IT WAS REALLY KIND OF AMAZING.

IT'S JUST LIKE SOMEBODY FLIPPED THE SWITCH ON.

IT WAS ALL OF A SUDDEN, BOOM. I GOT OVER 100 CALLS.

SOME OF THE MOST DANGEROUS ANIMALS ON THE PLANET.

AND FROM THAT POINT ON, I KNEW THERE WAS A PROBLEM,

'CAUSE I WAS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF IT.

I GOT CALLED TO A RESIDENCE

BECAUSE A LARGE BOA CONSTRICTOR HAD ESCAPED.

IT WAS LOOSE IN THEIR HOUSE.

SO, THAT'S KIND OF A TYPICAL STORY.

WE GET QUITE A FEW OF THOSE A YEAR,

BUT WHAT MAKES IT UNIQUE IS WHEN I GOT THERE,

THE GENTLEMAN SAID THE SNAKE WAS LOOSE IN THE WALLS,

AND THEY WERE JUST FREAKING OUT

BECAUSE THE WOMAN WHO LIVED THERE

WAS AN INVALID IN A WHEELCHAIR.

AND THAT SNAKE WAS IN HER WALLS 28 DAYS

UNTIL IT FINALLY POPPED OUT ENOUGH

THAT I COULD GET INSIDE AND GET IT OUT.

BUT YOU COULD IMAGINE BEING AN ELDERLY WOMAN

TRYING TO SLEEP EVERY NIGHT

KNOWING THAT THERE'S A BOA CONSTRICTOR

IN HER WALL AS SHE WAS SLEEPING.

ONE OF THE MOST POPULAR ANIMALS

I HAVE TO GO RESCUE IS ALLIGATORS.

HERE IN THE MIDWEST, NORTHERN PART OF THE UNITED STATES,

PEOPLE BUY 'EM AS PETS.

YOU KNOW, THEY'RE CUTE WHEN THEY'RE LITTLE.

GET BIG, ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY ESCAPE OR GET TURNED LOOSE.

JUST A FEW YEARS AGO, I HAD A RECORD-BREAKING YEAR.

I HAD 19 ALLIGATORS IN THE DAYTON AREA.

I HAD 10 ALLIGATORS IN THE CINCINNATI AREA.

THAT'S 29 ALLIGATORS.

THAT'S MORE THAN THEY HAD NUISANCE ALLIGATORS

IN SOME AREAS OF FLORIDA.

COMING TO THE EAST SIDE OF DAYTON,

WHERE I WAS CALLED OUT ON A VERY UNUSUAL AND DANGEROUS CALL

WHERE A FOUR- AND SIX-YEAR-OLD BOY

HAD FOUND AN UNUSUAL SNAKE IN THEIR GARAGE,

AND THEY THOUGHT IT WAS A PYTHON.

SO I GET THERE AND I WALK INTO THE GARAGE.

I SAW ABOUT THAT MUCH OF ITS TAIL,

AND I GO, "WHOA, WHOA, BOYS." I BACKED THEM OFF.

YOU KNOW, "HEY, THAT AIN'T NO PYTHON."

SO I MOVED THE TRASHCANS BACK

AND I LOOKED AT IT-- IT WAS A GABOON VIPER FROM AFRICA,

ONE OF THE MOST DANGEROUS SNAKES IN THE WORLD

WITH THE WORLD'S LONGEST FANGS.

I ABOUT HAD A HEART ATTACK.

SO, YOU BOYS WERE PLAYING WITH THIS ALL DAY?

APPARENTLY THESE KIDS WERE CARRYING THIS SNAKE

AROUND THEIR NECK,

WERE PUTTING IT ON THE GROUND DRIVING IT LIKE A CAR,

AND THE SNAKE NEVER BIT THEM.

I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT.

THE BIGGEST SNAKE EVER CAUGHT IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA

WAS A 16-FOOT BURMESE PYTHON.

IT WAS RIGHT IN THIS PARKING LOT RIGHT BEHIND ME HERE.

OF COURSE, IT'S SOMEBODY'S PET THAT GOT LOOSE.

WE GOT TO HOLD THAT SNAKE,

PULLED IT UP, STRETCHED OUT IN FRONT OF THE FIRE ENGINE

JUST TO SHOW SCALE, TO SHOW THE SIZE OF IT.

IT WAS PHENOMENAL. IT WAS A HUGE, HUGE SNAKE.

CUSTOMER LADY CAME IN THE PRETZEL BAKERY HERE

AND SAID, "THEY GOT A BIG CAT NEXT DOOR."

SO, WE LOOKED UP IN THE WINDOW, AND IT WASN'T A DOMESTIC CAT.

IT WAS A BIG COUGAR.

THIS THING HAD A HEAD ABOUT LIKE THIS.

SAID, "IT'S A MOUNTAIN LION."

AND MY THING WAS, "WHY IN GOD'S NAME

WOULD ANYBODY HAVE SOMETHING LIKE THAT IN THEIR HOUSE?"

GOT A DISPATCH THAT THERE WAS A COUGAR,

MOUNTAIN LION, LOOSE IN DOWNTOWN DAYTON.

IT-- KIND OF A STARTLING NEWS

TO GET EARLY IN THE MORNING.

OH, IT'S MY HUSBAND GOING, "HONEY, THERE'S A MOUNTAIN LION

RUNNING LOOSE ACROSS THE STREET."

I'M LIKE, "YEAH, RIGHT." HE'S LIKE, "NO, SERIOUSLY."

I CAME AROUND THE CORNER, I SEE THE COUGAR.

IT STARTS CHARGING AFTER ONE OF THE DAYTON OFFICERS.

LIKE, WHY WOULD THEY-- YOU KNOW, I'M SITTING THERE

AND I'M GOING, "YOU KNOW, THESE THINGS EAT PEOPLE."

IT TURNED, CHARGED ME

WITH THE MOST BLOODCURDLING SNARLS

YOU'VE EVER HEARD IN YOUR LIFE.

IT LUNGED AT ME, AND ONE-IN-A-MILLION SHOT,

I TOOK THE DOG SNARE, SNARED HIM RIGHT IN THE MOUTH,

SPUN HIM, TURNED HIM DOWN,

PINNED HIS HEAD DOWN WITH ALL MY BODY WEIGHT,

AND PULLED THE GAG ON THERE.

AND NOW I HAD A COUGAR UNDERNEATH MY STICK.

NOW I GOTTA FIGURE OUT HOW TO GET IT OUT OF THE BACKYARD AREA.

THE CAT'S TAIL WAS WHIPPING BACK AND FORTH,

SO I GRABBED WHAT I CALL GOD'S HANDLE,

AND THAT CAT WAS GOING TOTALLY NUTS.

AND, WELL, THE UNUSUAL PART ABOUT IT WAS

WAS IN THE PROCESS OF DOING THAT THE COUGAR PEES ALL OVER ME,

AND I FELT LIKE DOING THE EXACT SAME THING,

I WAS THAT SCARED.

THEY'RE PREDATORS AND THEY EAT PEOPLE,

AND THAT, YOU KNOW...

I DIDN'T WANT TO BE LUNCH.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO TO INDIA TO SEE A TIGER.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO TO CANADA TO SEE A COUGAR.

YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO TO AFRICA TO SEE A GABOON VIPER.

YOU CAN GO TO ANYTOWN, USA. THOSE ANIMALS ARE HERE.

MAY THE THIRD, 1999.

I WRECKED A TRACTOR AND TRAILER.

ENDED UP HAVING A BUNCH

OF CRUSHED VERTEBRAS AND STUFF,

AND IT-- IT GOT THE BEST OF ME.

THEY DID AN OPERATION, UH...

COULDN'T DO NOTHING.

I LAID IN THE-- LAID ON THE COUCH

AND IN THE BED FOR A YEAR AND A HALF.

SEEMED LIKE I JUST NEEDED SOMETHING

TO MAKE ME WANT TO GO ON.

WHEN RODNEY SHOWED UP WITH LAMBERT,

HE JUST TOLD ME, HE SAID, "TAKE HIM A COUPLE DAYS.

IF YOU DON'T WANT HIM, I'LL COME BACK AND GET HIM."

I NEVER REALIZED...

THE IMPACT.

SO, MAYBE IT WAS ONE OF THE DUMBEST THINGS

I EVER DONE...

BUT IT WORKED.

I MEAN, HE'D ALWAYS MAKE ME HAPPY.

HE'D ALWAYS WANT TO PLAY, AND...

IT WAS LIKE HIS WAY OF TELLING ME

THINGS IS GONNA GET BETTER.

COME ON. [ chuckles ] COME ON, YEAH!

WHAT'S THE MATTER, BUDDY, HUH? WHAT'S THE MATTER WITH YA?

I HAVE-- MY OWN KIDS HAS EVEN SAID,

"VICKI, YOU NEED TO CATCH THE OLD MAN GONE,

"JUST SELL ALL THAT JUNK HE COLLECTS DOWN THERE,

FIND A HOME FOR THEM TWO CATS."

BOY, SHE TURNED AROUND. SHE'S RIGHT ON HIM, I MEAN...

TELLS NATE, YOU KNOW, "WHATEVER YOUR DAD DOES IS YOUR DAD,

AND I'LL STAND BEHIND HIM 100%."

AND THEY DON'T LIKE IT, YOU KNOW.

THEY TELL THEM.... TELL THEM WE'RE BOTH NUTS.

I MEAN, BUT, UH...

I TOLD HER, I SAID...

I SAID, "I DON'T KNOW, YOU KNOW,

IF WE CAN MAKE IT."

WELL.

AS LONG AS WE'RE TOGETHER, WE'LL MAKE IT.

THE SAME WAY WITH THEM TWO CATS.

AS LONG AS THEY'RE TOGETHER, THEY'LL MAKE IT.

I GOT A FISTFUL OF ANIMAL FINDER GUIDES

HERE I KEEP RIGHT HERE AT THE DESK.

WHAT THE ANIMAL FINDER GUIDE IS IT'S KIND OF LIKE

A NATIONAL CLASSIFIED ADS FOR EXOTIC ANIMALS.

I LIKE TO KEEP THEM AROUND

BECAUSE IT KEEPS ME UP-TO-DATE ON WHAT I'M UP AGAINST.

AS I OPEN IT UP, IT'S GOT FREE TIGERS,

TWO MALES, ONE FEMALE,

AND ON THE SAME PAGE, "FREE FEMALE COUGAR

TO APPROVED HOME, NINE YEARS OLD, VERY SWEET."

BENGAL TIGERS. THREE-YEAR-OLD MALE,

TWO-YEAR-OLD FEMALE.

WHITE RHINOS, KANGAROOS, WATER BUFFALOES.

LOTS OF WOLVES IN HERE, TOO. WOW.

LOTS AND LOTS OF PRIMATES, ANYTHING FROM RHESUS MONKEYS

TO, YOU KNOW, CAPUCHIN TO SULAWESI MONKEYS.

CHIMPANZEES. OH, MY GOODNESS SAKES.

GET YOURSELF A BRAND-NEW, FREE MOUNTAIN LION.

GIVING IT AWAY. CAN'T EVEN--

GOT SO MANY WE DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO WITH.

BUT IT COSTS $300 TO GET YOURSELF AN ARMADILLO.

[ laughing ]

THAT'S WHAT YOU NEED'S A BEAR.

EVERYBODY NEEDS TO HAVE A BEAR.

THAT'S WHAT YOU NEED.

WOW, "FREE TO GOOD HOME, HAND-RAISED COUGARS,

LIONS, TIGERS, AND BEARS,"

AND ON THE SAME PAGE,

"SYRIAN BROWN BEAR CUBS FOR SALE,"

AND A GREAT ADVERTISEMENT RIGHT ACROSS FROM IT

IS, UH, ROCKY, THE WRESTLING GRIZZLY.

APPARENTLY HE'S APPEARED ON SEMI-PRO

ALL THE DIFFERENT MOVIES.

THIS GUY'S A WELL-KNOWN EXOTIC ANIMAL TRAINER,

BIG-BEAR TRAINER, AND HE'S JUST WRAPPING AROUND

AND WRESTLING, HAVING A GOOD OLD TIME WITH HIS BEAR

LIKE IT'S JUST A BIG OLD TEDDY BEAR.

JUST, YOU KNOW, "HEY, EVERYBODY SHOULD DO THIS."

THEY DON'T HAVE ANYTHING IN HERE LIKE,

"HEY, IF YOU'RE DONE WITH YOUR BIG CAT,

WHY DON'T WE HELP YOU WITH IT?"

NO, THEY'RE CALLING MY ORGANIZATION,

THEY'RE CALLING ALL THESE OTHER RESCUE ORGANIZATIONS ACROSS THE COUNTRY,

AND THEY'RE SITTING THERE GOING,

"I GOTTA GET RID OF MY BIG CAT."

"I GOTTA GET RID OF MY CHIMPANZEE."

YOU DON'T SEE ANY OF THESE ORGANIZATIONS

STEPPING UP AND SAYING, "HEY, LET'S HELP OUT."

WHAT ARE WE SUPPOSED TO DO? JUST KEEP FIGHTING, I GUESS.

KEEP-- SOMEBODY'S GOTTA LOVE THESE ANIMALS.

THE GRIZZLY BEAR THAT APPEARED

IN THE RECENT WILL FERRELL FILM SEMI-PRO

HAS KILLED ITS TRAINER.

STEVEN MILLER DIED YESTERDAY

AFTER THE BEAR BIT HIM ON THE NECK.

CALIFORNIA POLICE SAY... Man: DURING AN INTERVIEW LAST YEAR HE SAID, QUOTE,

"IF ONE OF THESE ANIMALS GETS AHOLD OF YOUR THROAT,

YOU'RE FINISHED."

MY NAME IS ZUZANAH KUKOL,

AND I WAS BORN AND RAISED IN CZECHOSLOVAKIA.

I LEFT THE COMMUNISM BECAUSE THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH FREEDOM,

AND RIGHT NOW I'M IN USA

AND I'M STILL FIGHTING FOR MY FREEDOMS

TO KEEP THE ANIMALS OF DIFFERENT BREEDS AND SPECIES,

AND SEEMS LIKE IT'S A CONSTANT BATTLE

TO BE ABLE TO CHOOSE WHAT KIND OF ANIMALS I WANT TO KEEP,

SO ME AND MY FIANCE SCOTT,

WE STARTED A NONPROFIT CORPORATION CALLED REXANO,

WHICH STANDS FOR "RESPONSIBLE EXOTIC ANIMAL OWNERSHIP."

BUT SEEMS LIKE NO MATTER HOW RESPONSIBLE WE ARE,

NO MATTER HOW MUCH WE PROVE WITH OUR STATISTICS

THAT WE ARE NOT A PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUE,

THE HYSTERIA TAKES OVER AND THE GOVERNMENT

AND EXTREME ANIMAL RIGHTS GROUPS JUST WANT TO BAN US

BECAUSE THEY HAVE NOTHING BETTER TO DO.

AND HERE WE ARE, RUNNING A WEBSITE

AND A SMALL ORG-- ORGANIZATION,

TRYING TO PUT OUT THE FACTS...

WE DON'T HAVE $200 MILLION OR PAID LOBBYISTS

TO PUSH MY-- TO PUSH AGAINST THEIR AGENDA.

IF IT'S DONE CORRECTLY AND THEIR WELFARE IS TAKEN CARE OF,

THERE'S NO REASON YOU SHOULDN'T BE ABLE TO DO IT.

I CAN'T TELL SOMEBODY

HOW GREAT THESE ANIMALS ARE.

YOU GOTTA EXPERIENCE IT.

[ purring ]

LITTLE GIRL.

MOST EXOTIC PETS ARE REALLY SMALL,

LIKE SMALL REPTILES,

BUT MOST PEOPLE, WHEN YOU SAY THE WORD "EXOTIC,"

THEY IMAGINE SOMETHING LIKE LIONS AND TIGERS.

SO, MOST PEOPLE DON'T KEEP LIONS AND TIGERS,

AND UNTIL YOU MEET THEM AND SEE HOW SWEET THEY ARE,

ALL THEY KNOW IS YOU NEED TO FEAR THEM.

AND SINCE PEOPLE FEAR UNKNOWN,

THEIR FIRST REACTION IS JUST BAN IT.

THEY'RE TRYING TO PUSH THEIR IDEALS

ON EVERYBODY ELSE.

HEY, IF THEY DON'T LIKE EATING MEAT,

THAT'S FINE, YOU DON'T HAVE TO EAT MEAT,

BUT DON'T TELL ME I CAN'T.

AN UNBELIEVABLE FIND RIGHT IN A DAYTON NEIGHBORHOOD,

AND IT'S STRAIGHT OUT OF THE JUNGLE BOOK.

YEAH, THAT'S A BEAR.

THE DAYTON HUMANE SOCIETY FOUND

THIS THREE-MONTH-OLD CUB YESTERDAY.

SOMEONE CHAINED IT UP AT A HOME IN THE 1600 BLOCK...

IT JUST BREAKS MY HEART TO SEE THESE ANIMALS

THAT SHOULD BE AT SMOKEY MOUNTAINS,

ENJOYING LIFE IN THE WILD,

HAVING TO END UP LIKE THIS.

IT'S JUST NOT RIGHT. IT'S JUST NOT RIGHT.

Woman: NO ONE IS OWNING UP TO THE BEAR.

IN THE MEANTIME, THE HUMAN SOCIETY

HAS CALLED IN SOME EXPERTS...

I GOTTA FIND A HOME FOR A CHIMPANZEE,

I GOTTA FIND A HOME FOR A BEAR,

A WHOLE BUNCH OF SNAKES.

IT'S NEVER-ENDING. NEVER-ENDING.

IF I HAVE SOMEONE COMES INTO THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT

AND SAYS, "YOU KNOW, I'VE GOT A BEAR AT HOME THAT I KEEP AS A PET,"

AND COULD GUARANTEE YOU THAT MOST OF THE PEOPLE AROUND HERE

WOULD THINK THAT'S PRETTY COOL, THAT'S PRETTY NEAT,

AND THAT'S JUST WRONG.

I'M ROGER PAHOLKA. I'M A MEDICAL DOCTOR

BOARD-CERTIFIED IN EMERGENCY MEDICINE.

THIS IS MIAMI VALLEY HOSPITAL.

WE'RE LOCATED IN DAYTON, OHIO.

THIS IS A LEVEL-ONE TRAUMA CENTER,

A TERTIARY CARE CENTER.

IT'S A VERY BUSY EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT,

ACTUALLY THE BUSIEST EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT

IN THE STATE OF OHIO.

SINCE 1994, MY FAMILY AND I HAVE BEEN TRAVELING TO AFRICA.

WE ACTUALLY HAVE A HOME IN SOUTH AFRICA,

AND WE DO MEDICAL MISSIONS WORK IN SWAZILAND AND IN MOZAMBIQUE.

AND I SEE MORE FATAL INJURIES IN THIS COUNTRY FROM SNAKES

AND FROM WILD ANIMALS

THAN WE DO IN AFRICA.

AND WE'VE BEEN WORKING IN AFRICA FOR 25 YEARS.

PEOPLE IN AFRICA DON'T KEEP COBRAS IN THEIR HOUSE.

THEY DON'T KEEP LIONS AND LEOPARDS IN THEIR YARD.

THEY KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE FROM THEM,

BECAUSE THEY'RE AFRAID OF THEM.

WE SHOULD BE AFRAID OF THEM, TOO, BUT WE'RE NOT.

OH, BUGGER!

THIS IS-- LOOK AT THIS THING, JIMMY!

GET IT OUT OF HERE!

NO, IT'S SO-- LOOK AT THE TEETH ON IT!

Paholka: I GET ANGRY WHEN I SEE THESE ANIMAL SPECIALISTS

WHO ARE ON TV WRESTLING WITH A CROCODILE,

OR SOMEBODY WHO HAS GONE ON TO A TALK SHOW

WITH A CHIMPANZEE ON A LEASH,

JUST TO SHOW HOW TAME AND HOW MANAGEABLE

THESE ANIMALS REALLY ARE.

IN OUR COUNTRY, THINK ABOUT IT,

MOST OF THE TIMES

THAT KIDS SEE A WILD ANIMAL IS ON TELEVISION.

WHEN THEY SEE SNAKES, PYTHONS, BOA CONSTRICTORS,

THEY'RE WRAPPED AROUND THE ZOOKEEPER'S NECK.

"OH, ISN'T THIS GREAT? THESE ARE GREAT ANIMALS.

THESE ARE MY FRIENDS."

WE HAVE A COMPLETELY DIFFERENT MINDSET ABOUT THESE ANIMALS

BECAUSE OF THE CONTEXT IN WHICH WE SEE THEM.

WE SEE THEM AS SAFE, CUDDLY, NICE, FRIENDLY ANIMALS,

AS OPPOSED TO THE PEOPLE IN AFRICA.

THEY SEE IT AS SOMETHING THAT'S GONNA EAT YOUR FACE.

LITERALLY.

WE'RE HERE IN, YOU KNOW, A NICE SUBURBAN AREA

HERE IN THE NORTH SIDE OF TOWN

WHERE A WOMAN SPOTTED A COUGAR,

WHAT SHE THOUGHT WAS A COUGAR IN HER BACKYARD AREA,

SO WE HAVE TO VERIFY ALL THESE STORIES

BEFORE WE CAN TAKE THEM FOR REAL.

I SAW SOMETHING OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE COME ACROSS HERE,

AND IT WENT DOWN BEHIND THIS FENCE

AND BACK DOWN TO THAT LITTLE OPENING RIGHT THERE.

IT DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE TO ME THAT YOU SHOULD BE ALLOWED

TO HAVE ANYTHING IN YOUR HOUSE THAT POSES A DANGER

TO ALL OF YOUR NEIGHBORS,

THAT POSES A DANGER TO YOUR ENTIRE COMMUNITY.

WHERE'S THE SENSE IN THAT?

AND AS I WAS WATCHING HIM, THEN HE TURNED AROUND,

AND I SAW THE CAT FACE.

AND, UH, I THOUGHT, "NO, THIS IS NOT GOOD."

Paholka: AND LET'S SAY THAT YOU DECIDE,

"I AM GOING TO GET A LITTLE LION CUB,

AND I'M GOING TO BRING IT INTO MY HOUSE."

LET'S SAY THAT SOMEHOW THAT LION GETS LOOSE.

YOU'VE NOW GOT A DEADLY ANIMAL

PROWLING IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD.

YOU DON'T EXPECT TO GO OUT ON YOUR DECK ONE NIGHT,

DRINK A COLD BEER, TALK ABOUT THE BASEBALL GAME,

AND HAVE A LION COME SNEAKING ACROSS YOUR YARD.

YOU DON'T EXPECT THAT, BUT IT CAN HAPPEN.

I WAS PROBABLY 10 OR 15 MILES AWAY

WHEN I GOT THE CALL THAT THERE WAS LIONS OUT CHASING CARS.

ANYTIME YOU GET A 911 CALL THAT A LION'S CHASING VEHICLES

UP AND DOWN 23, IT KIND OF CONCERNS YOU.

AT 550 POUNDS, THIS LION TOWERS OVER HIS OWNER,

SO YOU CAN IMAGINE THE SHOCK OF DRIVERS

AS HE CHASED THEIR CARS ON US 23.

I'M LIKE, "YOU'RE NOT GONNA BELIEVE THIS.

I'M ON 23, AND THERE'S A LION IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD."

SHE'S LIKE, "HA, ARE THERE BEARS, TOO?"

I'M LIKE, "NO, IT'S A LION. IT'S ALIVE,"

AND I'M LIKE, "IT'S GONNA EAT US."

LAMBERT'S OWNER, TERRY BRUMFIELD,

SAYS HIS PET BROKE OUT THROUGH THE TOP OF THIS PEN.

I HOLLERED AT HIM. I THOUGHT, "OH, LORD, LAMBERT.

YOU'RE DEAD, BUDDY. SOMEBODY WILL HIT YOU."

FINALLY AFTER THE CAT WAS INTO THE BUILDING

AND SOMEWHAT CONTAINED, THE OWNER HAD SAID,

YOU KNOW, THAT HE PUT HIS PAWS ON HIS SHOULDERS

AND JUST TOWERED, YOU KNOW, TOWERED OVER HIM.

AND HE SAID THAT HE KNEW THAT HE COULD'VE EAT HIM

RIGHT THEN IF HE WANTED TO.

THERE'S NO LOCAL LAW IN THE COUNTY.

I MEAN, WE OPERATE ON THE OHIO VICE CODE.

YOU LOOK AT THE OHIO VICE CODE,

I THINK THE DEPARTMENT OF AGRICULTURE IS SOMEHOW INVOLVED,

BUT ACTUALLY HAS NO REGULATIONS.

BUT THERE'S NO LAW FOR IT.

I MEAN, YOU KNOW, YOU GOTTA HAVE A LAW

FOR DOG TAGS FOR YOUR DOG,

BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE TAGS FOR A LION.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND.

[ chuckles ] SO...

IT'S LIKE, "MAN, WHAT DO WE DO NEXT?"

WHAT DO WE DO NEXT?

I'VE THOUGHT, YOU KNOW, QUITE A FEW TIMES ABOUT,

UH, AM I DOING THE RIGHT THING.

OH...

[ snuffles ]

THIS IS, YOU KNOW, THE SADDEST THING WAS

IF HE HURT SOMEBODY

OR HAD THEM PINNED IN THEIR CAR,

IF I COULDN'T GET HIM AWAY,

I HAD MADE ALL THE ARRANGEMENTS...

TO PUT LAMBERT DOWN.

Interviewer: WOULD YOU HAVE DONE IT?

YEAH.

YEAH.

I KNOWED I COULD'VE DONE IT.

AND AS MUCH AS I LOVE THAT ANIMAL,

IF I WOULD'VE CAUSED HIS DEMISE,

THEN I'M GUILTY, AND I'LL OWN UP TO MY OWN DEMISE.

THERE WOULD'VE BEEN TWO SHELLS IN THE GUN,

'CAUSE I KNOW FOR A FACT STANDING HERE...

I COULDN'T-- I COULDN'T HANDLE IT.

THAT'S HOW MUCH I LOVE THAT ANIMAL.

Siegel: IT WAS A REALLY STRANGE SURPRISE FOR US.

WE HAD-- A TIGER HAD BEEN KILLED.

ONE OF THE CITY SANITATION WORKERS

HAD FOUND IT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD

AND THOUGHT, YOU KNOW, "THIS IS NOT SOMETHING

THAT SHOULD BE GOING TO THE LANDFILL,"

AND THOUGHT TO DELIVER IT TO THE ZOO

TO SEE IF WE COULD INVESTIGATE FURTHER, WHICH WE DID.

I'D MORE OR LESS EXPECT TO PICK UP A DEAD BODY

BEFORE I WOULD A TIGER, KNOWING HOW DALLAS IS.

SHE WAS LAYING RIGHT IN HERE.

I COME AROUND THIS WAY,

RIGHT DOWN AND PULLED THE, UH,

SEAT BACK.

AND IT WAS A LARGE TIGER.

I KIND OF LOOKED AT IT FOR A WHILE,

JUST COULDN'T BELIEVE SOMEONE WOULD ACTUALLY...

KILL AND DUMP AN ANIMAL LIKE THAT OUT HERE.

SHE WAS VERY HEALTHY LOOKING.

ALMOST MADE ME WANT TO CRY.

STILL DOES, SOMETIMES.

Siegel: WE ENDED UP DOING THE NECROPSY

AND ALSO TAKING X-RAYS OF THE TIGER,

AND FOUND THAT, TRAGICALLY, IT HAD ACTUALLY BEEN SHOT

IN THE FACE FIVE TIMES AT CLOSE RANGE

FROM A .45 CALIBER PISTOL.

I THINK HE WAS DELIVERED TO US ON CHRISTMAS DAY,

AND EVERYTHING ELSE-- IT WAS, UM, IT WAS SAD.

IT WAS SAD-- WE WERE SAD

AND WE WERE ANGRY AT THE SAME TIME.

I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT AT FIRST.

YOU KNOW, IT COME UP THROUGH THE WOODS

AND I JUST SEEN THE BODY OF IT,

AND AS IT CAME OUT OF THE THICKET,

IT SHOWED ITS TRUE SELF.

I WAS KIND OF IN AWE TO WHAT I SEEN,

SO I IMMEDIATELY GOT DOWN ON MY TREE STAND

AND LOOK AT THE-- WHERE THE CAT WAS LAST AT,

AND, UH, SEEN THREE-INCH CAT TRACKS.

Harrison: YOU KNOW, THE AVERAGE PERSON,

THEY DON'T APPRECIATE-- WHEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS OCCURS,

YOU HAVE THIS CLOSE ENCOUNTER WITH A PREDATOR,

BE IT IN A GARDEN OR THEIR BACKYARD,

OR ON THE INTERSTATE IN YOUR CAR,

OR JUST SITTING IN A TREE STAND AS A HUNTER,

UH, PEOPLE GOT TO WRAP THEIR MINDS AROUND THIS,

AND IT'S HARD FOR THEM TO DO THAT.

ABOUT EVERY ONE OF OUR WITNESSES

THAT I'VE HAD OVER THE LAST THREE, FOUR YEARS

HAVE ALL HAD NIGHTMARES.

THEY'VE ALL HAD NIGHTMARES OF THEIR INCIDENTS.

THEY JUST CAN'T GET THEIR MIND TO BELIEVE

THAT THIS HAPPENED TO THEM.

[ distant train whistle blows ]

[ distant dog barking ]

WHILE I'M SITTING HERE IN THE WOODS ON THIS, UH...

COUGAR CALL,

MY MIND STILL GOES BACK TO THE PEOPLE INVOLVED

WITH THAT AFRICAN LION THAT, UH,

WAS LOOSE ON THE INTERSTATE OVER THERE.

MY HEART GOES OUT TO THE OWNER

AND TO THE BIG CAT ITSELF, 'CAUSE HE, UH...

THE OWNER REALLY, I HONESTLY BELIEVE,

LOVES HIS CATS, LOVES THOSE TWO LIONS HE HAS.

HE, UH, YOU KNOW, HE LOOKS AT THESE ANIMALS AS PETS,

AND I UNDERSTAND THAT.

IF HE HAND-RAISED IT FROM A CUB,

I UNDERSTAND HOW CONNECTED YOU GET TO THESE ANIMALS,

'CAUSE I'VE BEEN THERE, BUT YOU'VE GOTTA UNDERSTAND,

YOU'VE GOTTA RESPECT WHAT THEY ARE.

[ lion rumbles ]

OVER MY 34 YEARS OF EXPERIENCE,

I'VE HAD SITUATIONS, UH, WHERE YOU'VE LOOKED AND SEEN

HOW THE PIECES COME TOGETHER.

YOU GET AN OWNER WHO'S GOT PHYSICAL PROBLEMS,

WHO'S ON MEDICATION.

YOU GET A LION THAT'S ALREADY ESCAPED ONCE BEFORE--

HE KNOWS FREEDOM.

YOU GET A LION ALSO THAT'S SEXUALLY MATURE

AND WHO'S READY TO FLEX HIS MUSCLES

AND TAKE OVER THE PRIDE, READY TO TAKE ON ANYBODY,

YOU CAN SEE IT. YOU KNOW IT.

IT'S GONNA HAPPEN,

AND WITH THE SITUATION IN PIKE COUNTY, IT'S...

I DON'T SEE A HAPPY ENDING TO THIS STORY.

AMANDA BLACK'S HUSBAND FOUND HER BODY

ON TUESDAY NIGHT IN THEIR MARACAS ARCH HOME,

BUT TODAY POLICE NOW CONFIRM THAT SNAKE DID KILL HER.

AUTOPSY IS SHOWING THAT THIS PYTHON

ACTUALLY CRUSHED THE WOMAN'S NECK

AND SUFFOCATED HER.

HER NAVY HUSBAND CAME HOME,

FOUND HIS WIFE DEAD ON THE FLOOR,

AND POLICE ARE TELLING US THAT IT IS NOT ILLEGAL.

IT IS ACTUALLY LEGAL TO HAVE SNAKES LIKE THESE,

THESE PYTHONS AND BOA CONSTRICTORS

IN YOUR HOUSE, EVEN IN CITY LIMITS.

HERE WE'RE HEADED TO PENNSYLVANIA

FOR THE VENOMOUS SNAKE AND EXOTIC REPTILE SALE.

IT'S THE BIGGEST ONE ON THE EAST COAST.

WOW, LOOK AT ALL THE CARS ALREADY.

[ chuckles ] OH, MAN.

THIS PLACE IS PACKED.

LET'S GO AND SEE WHAT'S GOING ON.

A GUY DEALING OUT OF HIS VEHICLE RIGHT HERE

ALREADY IN THE PARKING LOT.

YEAH, WE GOT LICENSES FROM ALL OVER THE UNITED STATES.

WE GOT FLORIDA, MARYLAND, NEW JERSEY, NEW YORK, OHIO.

SOME MORE NEW YORKERS, 'NOTHER ONE FROM MARYLAND.

GEORGIA. ALL OVER THE PLACE.

WOW, THIS PLACE IS PACKED.

HEY, MIKE?

MIGHT BE A GOOD IDEA TO PUT THAT CAMERA AWAY.

WE'VE GOT SOME PEOPLE LOOKING AT US

RIGHT NOW, KIND OF A LITTLE FREAKY.

Woman: WE'VE GOT 26 NOW.

WELL, WE'VE GOT SOME VENOMOUS SNAKES OVER HERE

IN DELI CUPS JUST LIKE YOU GET

YOUR POTATO SALAD AT THE GROCERY STORE.

GOT A VIPER, YOU GOT RATTLESNAKES.

HERE'S A GOOD OLD COPPERHEAD.

YOU CAN GET ANYTHING YOU WANT HERE,

ANY KIND OF VENOMOUS SNAKE YOU CAN THINK OF...

BLACK ADDERS, COBRAS, MAMBAS.

THERE'S RATTLESNAKES,

AND HERE'S A GABOON VIPER, A BABY ONE.

YEAH, THEY'RE PRETTY LAID-BACK ANIMALS, YOU KNOW.

I'M LOOKING AROUND NOTICING THERE'S A LOT

OF VENOMOUS SNAKES AND STUFF LIKE THAT.

I COME OVER HERE AND WE'RE LOOKING--

I'D REALLY LIKE TO KNOW ABOUT THAT.

WHAT'D HE GET, AN ALLIGATOR?

LOOK AT THAT. WHAT'D YOU GET?

I BOUGHT IT. [ woman cooing ]

YOU GOT AN ALLIGATOR?

IN THIS VERY ROOM A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO,

WE HAD A FIREFIGHTER,

SOMEBODY THAT WE WORKED WITH OFTEN AS A FIREFIGHTER,

PARAMEDIC, WHO ULTIMATELY DIED AFTER BEING BITTEN

BY HIS PET RHINO VIPER.

IT'S GOT TAPE ON THERE. THAT'S IT.

THAT'S JUST TAPE HOLDING IT ON.

THROUGH A PLASTIC CONTAINER

THAT YOU WOULD JUST PUT TOYS IN

OR, YOU KNOW, SOCKS OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

THAT'S ALL IT IS.

THE STORY DOESN'T END HERE IN THE EMERGENCY DEPARTMENT.

YOU'VE STILL GOT THE SNAKE IN THE HOUSE.

TIM HARRISON ENDS UP BEING CALLED

TO RETRIEVE THIS SNAKE.

NOW LET'S SEE IF WE CAN FIND US A SPOT

UP HERE, AWAY FROM EVERYBODY ELSE,

AND SEE IF WE CAN'T GET THIS, UH,

SNAKE MOVED OVER...

TO THE SAFETY CONTAINER.

Paholka: TIM HAS TO GO IN THE HOUSE

AND CAPTURE THIS SNAKE,

KNOWING THAT IT JUST KILLED

ONE OF HIS FELLOW FIREFIGHTERS.

IT TAKES A LOT OF BRAVERY TO GO INTO A HOME

UNDER THOSE CONDITIONS AND TRY AND GRAB THE SNAKE.

HE WAS ABLE TO RESCUE THE SNAKE,

BUT TIM WAS EXPOSED TO A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF DANGER.

SOME SUBSTANTIAL-- SUBSTANTIAL FANGS, THERE.

THOSE ARE THE FANGS OF A PUFF ADDER.

Paholka: FIREFIGHTERS AND PARAMEDICS

ARE THE BRAVEST, MOST FEARLESS PEOPLE

THAT I'VE EVER HAD THE PRIVILEGE TO WORK WITH.

THESE ARE INCREDIBLE MEN AND WOMEN.

THEY'RE VERY BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN

WHO WOULD RISK THEIR LIFE IN A HEARTBEAT TO SAVE YOURS.

MY FRIEND WHO WAS BITTEN BY THE SNAKE

WAS A VERY BRAVE MAN,

BUT HE'S NOW A VERY DEAD MAN

BECAUSE HE CHOSE TO HAVE ONE OF THESE SNAKES IN HIS HOUSE.

YOU'VE HEARD EVERYTHING? HOW ABOUT THIS.

A LAS VEGAS TODDLER PULLED FROM THE JAWS

OF AN 18-FOOT LONG, 300 POUND SNAKE.

THIS IS AN AMAZING STORY. CHECK IT OUT.

THESE PICTURES BEHIND US...

THE BOY'S MOTHER STABBED THE GIANT, 325-POUND PYTHON

17 TIMES UNTIL IT RELEASED THE BOY.

Foose: HERE IN LAS VEGAS WE JUST HAD AN INCIDENT

WHERE A LARGE RETICULATED PYTHON

ESCAPED FROM ITS CAGE AND ATTACKED A THREE-YEAR-OLD.

THE SNAKE ESCAPED.

THE CHILD WAS UNSUPERVISED

FOR EVEN A BRIEF AMOUNT OF TIME,

AND THE SNAKE TRIED TO USE HIM AS A LUNCH.

MY NAME IS KEN FOOSE.

I OWN EXOTIC PETS IN LAS VEGAS, NEVADA.

I, UM, HAVE A MASTER'S DEGREE IN ZOOLOGY

FROM KANSAS UNIVERSITY.

I WAS CURATOR AND PAST CURATOR

OF A COUPLE OF DIFFERENT MAJOR ZOOS,

AND I'VE BEEN DOING THIS ALL MY LIFE.

WHETHER IT'S A TIGER ATTACK OR A BEAR ATTACK

OR ANIMAL ABUSE OR THE SNAKE ATTACKING A CHILD,

UH, THE FIRST REACTION IS GOING TO BE

BY THE AUTHORITIES WHO ARE GOING TO SAY,

"OH, MY GOD. WE CAN'T EVER LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN.

WHAT DO WE DO TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC?"

WE'VE ALSO-- SO FAR THIS YEAR,

WE'VE HAD SIX VENOMOUS SNAKE BITES

IN THE COLUMBUS/ DAYTON/CINCINNATI AREA.

I DO THINK THAT MR. HARRISON

BRINGS A GOOD POINT UP,

IN THAT THIS STUFF IS A LOT MORE AVAILABLE

THAN WE THINK IT IS, AND THERE'S A LOT MORE OUT THERE.

Foose: YOU HAVE THESE GROUPS OF PEOPLE

WHO ARE AFRAID,

AND THEY WANT TO DO WHAT'S BEST FOR THEMSELVES,

HENCE, BEST FOR YOU,

BECAUSE, AFTER ALL, THAT'S THE WAY IT WORKS.

IF IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME, IT'S GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU.

SO, BECAUSE THEY'RE AFRAID,

THEY ARE GOING TO PROTECT THE REST OF US,

EVEN FROM OURSELVES.

WE ARE DEALING WITH ANIMALS THAT HAVE THE POTENTIAL

OF INFLICTING SERIOUS DAMAGE AND DEATH.

SO, IT BUILDS AND IT BUILDS AND IT BUILDS,

AND WE PEOPLE WHO KNOW WHAT WE'RE DOING,

IF WE CAN'T CHANGE THE MINDS

OF THESE PEOPLE THAT ARE AFRAID,

WE'RE GOING TO LOSE.

CONGRESS OF THE UNITED STATES

NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM IN LAW.

IT NEEDS TO ADDRESS WHAT I'M GOING TO SHOW YOU...

IF WE KEEP SHOOTING OURSELVES IN THE FOOT

AND GIVING THESE PEOPLE MORE FUEL FOR THEIR FEAR,

WE'RE GOING TO LOSE.

THE WORST HAPPENED LAST WEEK IN FLORIDA.

A PET BURMESE PYTHON...

IT--IT'S UP TO US,

WE KEEPERS OF LIONS, TIGERS, BEARS, SNAKES.

WE'VE GOT TO MAKE SURE THAT WE ARE FLAWLESS,

OR AS CLOSE TO FLAWLESS AS WE CAN BE.

WE'VE GOT TO MAKE SURE WE DON'T CAUSE THESE INCIDENTS.

IT'S BECAUSE OF US

THAT THIS IS COMING BACK TO HAUNT US NOW.

AND IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT,

WORKED ITS WAY UP INTO THE BABY CRIB,

ATTACHED ITS FANGS TO THE HEAD

OF A TWO-YEAR-OLD CHILD,

WRAPPED ITS BODY AROUND THE CHILD,

AND STRANGLED THE CHILD TO DEATH.

NO, I DON'T THINK THAT EVERYBODY SHOULD BE BANNED

FROM HAVING A SNAKE, UH, OR A TIGER.

I THINK EVERYBODY SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT TO OWN AN ANIMAL

IF THEY WANT TO SHOW THAT THEY'RE EXPERIENCED

AND THEY HAVE THE EDUCATION BEHIND IT,

THEY KNOW HOW TO HANDLE IT.

IT'S THE ONES THAT WE FIND LOOSE,

OR WANT TO TURN IT LOOSE, THAT'S A DIFFERENT AVENUE,

AND THAT HAS TO BE ADDRESSED IN DIFFERENT AREAS.

CHILLING TREND IN FLORIDA.

BURMESE PYTHONS, ONCE KEPT BY PEOPLE AS PETS,

NOW BECOMING A HAZARD IN PARTS OF FLORIDA.

THAT STATE HOPING THAT PYTHON PATROLS

WILL HELP GET THE SNAKES UNDER CONTROL.

ALL RIGHT, WE'RE BACK IN THE, UH...

OUTBACK OF THE EVERGLADES BACK HERE,

AND WE GOT NATIONAL PARK RANGERS ARE TAKING US BACK

TO WHERE THEY FOUND 12 PYTHONS, BURMESE PYTHONS, IN ONE DAY.

THIS IS PRIME PYTHON HABITAT.

YOU LOOK AT THIS AREA HERE, THIS REALLY THICK UNDERBRUSH,

AND, UH, YOU KNOW, WE COULD HAVE A 12- TO 14-FOOT PYTHON

JUST A FEW FEET AWAY FROM US IN THIS GRASS,

AND WE'D NEVER KNOW IT.

Radio: WE GOT ONE IN THE AREA.

PYTHON IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD HERE FOR YOU.

LOOK TO BE ABOUT A NINE-FOOT PYTHON.

OKAY, LET-- YOU RIGHT BEHIND US

AND DOWN THE ROAD A LITTLE WAYS?

[ garbled transmission ]

GREAT. HEADING THAT WAY.

YEAH, HE'S GOT A--

SOUNDS LIKE A NINE-FOOT BURMESE, PROBABLY.

OH, YEAH. THAT'S A SNAKE.

GLAD YOU WERE HERE.

OH, YEAH.

THAT'S AN ADULT BURMESE.

YOU KNOW, OBVIOUSLY PEOPLE DIDN'T THINK ABOUT THIS

WHEN THEY RELEASED THE SNAKES,

THAT THEY WOULD BE NATURALLY OCCURRING

AND BREEDING IN THE PARK,

AND, UH, AGAIN, THAT SHOWS YOU

THAT IT'S NOT NECESSARILY A PYTHON PROBLEM.

IT'S A PEOPLE PROBLEM THAT WE HAVE.

THE PYTHONS ARE BREEDING MACHINES.

THEY'RE PRETTY MUCH GONNA BE HERE TO STAY.

I DON'T REALLY FORESEE ANY WAY

THAT WE'RE GONNA PUT A DENT IN THE POPULATION,

ESPECIALLY SINCE I'VE CAUGHT AT LEAST OVER 100 PYTHONS,

UM, AND I'M STILL CATCHING THEM.

I GOT A QUESTION, UH, ANY CHANCE THAT YOU MIGHT,

UH, YOU MIGHT WANT THIS PYTHON?

I KNOW YOU SAID EARLIER IF I EVER FOUND ONE

THAT YOU'D WANT IT.

OH, YOU DID?

NO, NO, THAT'S OKAY.

WE CAN ONLY DO SO MUCH.

THERE'S ONLY SO MANY PEOPLE THAT WE CAN COUNT ON,

AND THAT'S WHAT WE'RE FINDING OUT NOW.

ALL THE PEOPLE THAT WE USED TO BE ABLE

TO RELY ON TO HOUSE THESE ANIMALS,

THEY'RE OVERTAXED THEMSELVES.

THEY'VE GOT 100 CATS, THEY'VE GOT 100 SNAKES.

THAT WAS MY-- MY HOPE.

I WAS HOPING WE COULD, UH, ACTUALLY GET THIS SNAKE PLACED,

UH, AT ONE OF OUR LICENSED FACILITIES,

BUT HE DOESN'T HAVE THE ROOM FOR IT.

WHEN PEOPLE THINK THAT THEY CAN TURN THEM LOOSE

AND THEY'LL SURVIVE, IT'S NOT--

IF WE FIND HIM, WE'RE GONNA PUT THE ANIMALS DOWN,

AND THAT'S WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN TODAY.

THE GUY THAT I WAS GONNA TAKE THAT SNAKE TO?

HE DOESN'T HAVE THE SPACE,

SO THAT ONLY LEAVES ME WITH OPTION "B,"

WHICH IS EUTHANIZING IT, SO WE'LL JUST DISPATCH IT.

IT'S NOT A HAPPY ENDING FOR THE SNAKE.

I GUESS IF YOU WANT... THAT'LL BE FINE.

JUST PUT IT RIGHT DOWN HERE.

YEAH, THAT'LL BE FINE.

[ cocks ]

[ shot reverberates ]

A TEENAGED GIRL MAULED BY A COUGAR

RECOVERING THIS MORNING, BUT GET THIS--

BEATING ON THE CAT TO GET THE CAT OFF THE GIRL.

I WAS ABLE TO GET THE GIRL AWAY FROM THE CAT.

LET'S BEING WITH THAT FLORIDA TEENAGER

WHO WAS ATTACKED BY A COUGAR.

...WAS THE CARETAKER OF THE COUGAR INSIDE THIS HOUSE.

SHE ALSO SAYS... I DON'T WANT THE CAT TO BE, YOU KNOW, BAD PUBLICITY,

BECAUSE HE'S NOT A BAD CAT.

IT WAS UNFORTUNATE THAT THE GIRL GOT HURT...

TIM, I HAVE TO ASK YOU THE QUESTION:

THERE ARE AFRICAN LIONS,

BIG CATS WALKING DOWN THE INTERSTATES.

PEOPLE LOOK OUT THEIR BACKDOORS

AND THEY SEE COUGARS IN THEIR BACKYARDS.

WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?

WELL, JUST WITHIN THE LAST FEW MONTHS MYSELF

I'VE HAD FOUR CALLS OF PEOPLE SPOTTING MOUNTAIN LIONS, COUGARS.

IN FACT, JUST TWO MILES FROM MY OWN RESIDENCE IN WARREN COUNTY,

THEY'VE BEEN SPOTTING POTENTIALLY A YOUNG AFRICAN LION

OR A COUGAR, AND I'VE BEEN OUT TRYING TO TRACK

TO TRY TO FIND THAT CAT, BECAUSE THAT'S A PERSONAL...

WALKING THROUGH THIS HIGH GRASS

REMINDS ME OF THE TIMES I SPENT IN AFRICA.

THIS IS WHERE AFRICAN LIONS

ARE SUPPOSED TO BE FOUND IN AFRICA.

IT ALSO GETS ME THINKING ABOUT THE TWO LIONS

LEFT IN PIKE COUNTY FIVE MONTHS AGO.

I HEARD TODAY THE CATS ARE STILL IN A HORSE TRAILER.

BREAKS MY HEART, YOU KNOW?

YOU CAN IMAGINE YOU WOULDN'T PUT YOUR DOGS

IN SOMETHING LIKE THAT FOR FIVE MONTHS,

LET ALONE A WILD ANIMAL THAT'S OVER 500 POUNDS.

THAT'S JUST...

UNBELIEVABLE.

UNBELIEVABLE.

I'VE NEVER, EVER

BEEN ATTACHED TO AN ANIMAL

AS MUCH AS I AM NOW.

IT'S LIKE ONE OF MY OWN KIDS.

I MEAN...

THAT FEELING IS DEEP.

AND I-I CAN LOOK IN HIS BIG OLD ROUND EYES...

THERE'S SO MUCH HE KNOWS, YOU KNOW?

HE KNOWS THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH ME...

Harrison: HE, UH, WON'T TO TALK TO ME.

HE WON'T ANSWER MY PHONE CALLS.

HE'S BEEN TOLD NOT TO BY OTHER ORGANIZATIONS.

Vicki: OKAY, I'LL TELL HIM I TALKED TO YOU

AND YOU CAN CALL TOMORROW AND SEE WHAT'S GOING ON.

I NEED TO CONTINUE CALLING.

I NEED TO GET HIM TO UNDERSTAND THAT HE NEEDS HELP,

AND IF THEY STILL ARE NOT GONNA PAY ATTENTION TO THAT,

THEN I TAKE HIM FROM MY LIST OF PEOPLE THAT I CARE ABOUT

AND PUT HIM ON MY LIST OF PEOPLE THAT I NEED TO TAKE OUT.

I HAD A PROBLEM THERE WITH THE HUMANE SOCIETY GUYS.

THEY KEPT JERKING ME AROUND AND LIED TO ME, AND--

AND THEN THEY-- THEY, UH,

HAVE AN ULTERIOR MOTIVE.

YOU KNOW, RATHER TO HELP ME, WHICH THEY COULD HAVE,

THEY CHOSE NOT TO AND THEY CHOSE TO TRY TO HURT ME,

AND HE WENT BEHIND MY BACK AND TRIED TO TAKE THEM.

AND I WALKED THE GUY AROUND THIS TRAILER,

AND SAID, "LET ME TELL YOU SOMETHING, BUDDY.

I FOUND OUT THAT YOU WAS GOING TO TRY TO TAKE MY CATS."

I SAID, "YOU REMEMBER THAT LITTLE DEAL

DOWN THERE IN WACO, TEXAS?"

HE SAID, "YEAH."

GOD RAISE HIS HAND AND STRIKE ME DEAD,

I'M GONNA BE SERIOUS WITH IT RIGHT NOW.

I SAID, "YOU'D BETTER BELIEVE EVERY WORD OF IT.

"THAT WAS A CAKEWALK

"COMPARED TO WHAT I'LL DO TO YOU

"IF MY CATS COME UP MISSING,

"IF I CATCH YOU TRYING TO TAKE MY CATS,

OR IF I CATCH YOU TRYING TO HARM MY CATS."

I SAID, "BECAUSE IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO HIM..."

I, YOU KNOW...

I DON'T CARE IF I BREATHE TOMORROW.

GO UP A LITTLE FARTHER HERE.

SEE WHAT IT SAYS ON THIS...

1454. 1458.

OH, MY GOSH.

Vicki: GET THE HELL OFF MY PROPERTY. YOU'RE CLOSE ENOUGH.

I'M JUST HERE TO-- I JUST GOT SOME INFORMATION.

I'M JUST HERE TO HELP.

I DON'T CARE. I DON'T WANT YOUR DAMN INFORMATION.

YOU'RE NOT TAKING THE LIONS,

AND I JUST WANT YOU TO GET THE HELL OFF MY PROPERTY.

I'M NOT HERE TO TAKE YOUR CATS. I'M HERE TO HELP OUT.

JUST LET ME TALK TO TERRY. TERRY DOESN'T WANT TO TALK.

I TOLD YOU ON THE PHONE, I'M TIRED OF IT,

AND I'M NOT GONNA PUT UP WITH IT ANYMORE.

GET THE HELL OUT OF HERE. IT'S GONNA BE A TRAGEDY.

SOMEBODY'S GONNA GET HURT, SOMETHING'S GONNA HAPPEN,

AND THEY'RE GONNA TAKE YOUR CATS ANYWAY.

THIS IS NOT A BLACK AND WHITE SITUATION.

IT'S A GRAY SITUATION, LIKE YOU SAID BEFORE,

BUT SOMETIMES YOU'RE STUCK WITH THE CHARCOAL.

IT'S VERY EASY TO BE ATTACHED TO THESE ANIMALS.

I'VE CRIED A LOT OF TEARS

FROM HAVING TO GIVE UP A CAT

TO GO TO A ZOO OR SOMETHING AFTER I RAISED IT FOR THEM.

I'VE BEEN CRIPPLED UP IN THE BACK

FOR THE LAST NINE YEARS DUE TO A TRUCK ACCIDENT,

AND THAT'S WHY I GOT THE LIONS TO START WITH...

FIGHT A LITTLE BIT OF DEPRESSION.

I WAS HOLED UP IN THAT BEDROOM FOR ALMOST A YEAR AND A HALF.

VICKI DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.

SHE'S TRYING HER BEST, MY WIFE.

THEY, UH, THEY THINK YOU'RE NUTS, YOU KNOW,

FOR GETTING A LION OR A BIG ANIMAL LIKE THAT,

BUT...

YOU KNOW, AN ANIMAL LIKE THAT

CAN DO THINGS THAT DOCTORS CAN'T.

HOW LONG HAVE YOU HAD, THE, UH, LAMBERT?

I'VE HAD HIM THREE AND A HALF YEARS,

AND, UH, LACIE, UH, BELONGED TO A...

ANOTHER WOMAN,

AND SHE HAD TO GET RID OF HIM.

BUT, I MEAN, I LOVE THEM BOTH THE SAME,

A LITTLE MORE TOWARD LAMBERT,

'CAUSE I'VE HAD HIM THE LONGEST.

YEAH.

HERE, LAMBERT. LAMBERT!

HOW LONG HAVE YOU HAD LACIE?

I'VE HAD HER, UH, THREE YEARS AND THREE MONTHS, I THINK.

LAMBERT.

I DON'T KNOW WHY THEY DON'T COME OUT.

YOU KNOW, USUALLY, MAN, HE'S RIGHT HERE.

THAT'S WHY I KEEP A CLOSE EYE ON THEM.

COME ON. COME ON, LAMBERT.

WHAT'S THE MATTER, BUDDY?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING, LACIE? WHAT ARE YOU DOING, GIRL?

LACIE, WHAT YOU GOT? WHAT'S SHE GOT THERE?

[ cubs squawking ]

ARE THOSE BABIES?

OH, LACIE! LACIE'S GOT A CUB

RIGHT THERE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FLOOR.

AND... [ chuckles ] LISTEN TO THAT!

THAT'S A BABY CUB!

LION CUBS. HE'S GOT LION CUBS.

I TELL YOU WHAT, THEY AIN'T BEEN BORN VERY LONG.

LOOK AT THAT! AT LEAST THREE.

YEAH, SHE'S GOT THEM!

[ chuckles ] LACIE!

[ growls ] WHOA!

YEAH, SHE GOT BABIES.

MAN ALIVE, SHE'S GOT BABIES.

LOOK AT HER!

THAT'S WHY SHE JUMPED UP LIKE THAT.

YEAH.

...LAYING DOWN THERE, LOOKS SO GENTLE.

[ growls ] WHOA! HERE SHE COMES AGAIN.

COME ON, GIRL. IT'S OKAY, LACIE.

IT'S OKAY, GIRL. IT'S OKAY.

TO PROTECT THEM THERE.

YEAH, THAT'S GOOD. COME ON, LACIE.

[ laughing ] HEAR THAT!

LOOK AT THAT LITTLE ONE RIGHT OVER THERE IN THE CORNER.

HERE COMES ONE LITTLE ONE RIGHT HERE BETWEEN HIS LEGS.

OH, THAT'S UNREAL.

[ squawking ]

YEAH, THOSE ARE GORGEOUS.

[ chuckles ] LOOK AT HER LICK THAT CUB.

BOY, SHE'S A PRETTY THING.

HELLO, LACIE.

HELLO, GIRL.

THAT'S AWESOME, YOU KNOW?

I MEAN, THAT LITTLE CUB,

LAYING RIGHT ON HIS FOOT RIGHT NOW,

AND IT DON'T EVEN COVER HIS WHOLE PAW.

RIGHT THERE IS LIVING PROOF THAT--

THAT-- THAT CAT,

I DON'T THINK EVER WOULD HURT A SOUL.

PEOPLE COME TO MY HOUSE...

THE LAST THING YOU'D SAY THAT WOULD REALLY AGGRAVATE ME

IS, "DAMN, YOU GOTTA BE NUTS TO WANT TO KEEP ONE OF THESE."

WHY, I MEAN!

I TELL THEM TO COME AND TAKE A LOOK AT THESE,

AND BETTER YET,

LET ME TAKE ONE OF THESE KITTENS,

PUT IT IN YOUR ARMS,

AND YOU PLAY WITH IT BY YOURSELF.

I'LL GIVE YOU 30 MINUTES,

AND I'LL COME BACK TO GET THE CAT,

AND 99 PEOPLE OUT OF A 100 WILL TAKE THAT KITTEN

AND RAISE IT JUST LIKE IT'S A NEWBORN BABY.

MM-HMM.

THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED TO ME.

EVERYBODY THINK THAT THEY'RE SO BIG AND BAD AND MEAN,

AND THIS IS THE THING THAT I SEE.

THIS IS THE THING THAT CHANGES, YOU KNOW...

[ crying ]

I DON'T KNOW.

YOU'RE ABSOLUTELY RIGHT. I KNOW.

WE'LL SEE WHAT WE CAN DO TO HELP YOU OUT. THAT'S WHAT I'M HERE FOR.

I JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU'RE GONNA BE SAFE

AND THEY'RE GONNA BE SAFE. THAT'S MY MAIN GOAL.

WHEN WE WERE COMING UP HERE,

I, UH, I FELT THAT THEY WERE STUCK,

THEY WERE, UH, THEY...

THEY WERE IN A PREDICAMENT THAT THEY CAN'T--

THERE WAS NO WAY TO GET OUT OF.

I, UH, I LOOKED THAT LION IN THE EYES

AND I PROMISED HIM I WOULDN'T ALLOW

ANYTHING BAD TO HAPPEN TO HIM.

AND I LOOKED TERRY IN THE EYE, AND VICKI,

AND I PROMISED THEM I'LL TRY TO HELP THEM.

THAT'S THE ONLY THING WE CAN DO. THAT'S THE ONLY THING WE CAN DO.

THOSE LIONS AREN'T GOING AWAY.

I'LL TELL YOU RIGHT UP FRONT, THE LIONS AREN'T GOING AWAY.

THEY'RE GONNA BE THERE TILL TERRY AND VICKI PASS ON

OR THE LIONS PASS ON.

IF SOMETHING DRASTIC HAPPENS, THEN THEY MAY HAVE TO BE MOVED,

BUT THEY'RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE, SO WE HAVE TO DO

THE BEST WE CAN WITH WHAT WE GOT IN THAT SITUATION.

NOW ADD ON FOUR MORE LIONS.

NOW THAT'S SIX LIONS,

AND THEY'RE BUILDING A CAGE FOR TWO.

AS THESE CATS GET BIGGER,

UH, IT'S-- COULD BE A POSSIBILITY THAT THEY'RE

GONNA GET THEMSELVES INTO A DEEP, DEEP HOLE,

AND, UH, SO WE MAY-- MAY COME IN AND HAVE TO REMOVE

AT LEAST SOME OF THE CATS OR ALL OF THE CATS.

BUT I DON'T SEE THEM GIVING THEM UP EASY.

IT'S AMAZING, IT'S ADORABLE, IT'S BEAUTIFUL,

BUT IT'S ALSO EVEN MORE SCARY NOW.

YOU KNOW, I FEEL FOR THESE--

I FEEL FOR THE COUPLE,

I FEEL FOR VICKI AND TERRY,

YOU KNOW, AND...

IT'S JUST GONNA GET WORSE FOR THEM.

I GOT A BAD FEELING IT'S JUST GONNA GET WORSE.

Terry: WE HAD OUR FIRST FEEDING EXPERIENCE A LITTLE WHILE AGO.

I AIN'T SURE THAT GO WELL.

HEY, GUYS, LOOK. ALL RIGHT!

HEY.

I'M THE GUY THAT'S SUPPOSED TO FEED YOU

AND TAKE CARE OF YOU.

HUH! THAT MADE HIM JUMP.

THAT'D PROBABLY MAKE ME JUMP.

SAMPSON IS THE ROWDY ONE RIGHT HERE,

AND THE ONE OVER HERE ON THE...

ON THE, UH, RIGHT, THAT'S TABBY.

AND WHAT'D WE NAME THE OTHER ONE?

Vicki: SOPHIE.

Terry: SOPHIA, LIKE THE OLD LADY ON GOLDEN GIRLS.

[ laughing ]

WELL, WE'RE HEADED BACK TO PIKE COUNTY, YOU KNOW,

THE SUN AND FUN CAPITAL OF THE STATE OF OHIO.

BROUGHT ALONG THE A-TEAM THIS TIME WITH ME.

I GOT RUSS CLEAR, POWER FORCE GENTLEMAN BACK HERE,

DOES SHOWS AND, UH,

ONE OF THE STRONGEST GENTLEMEN I'VE EVER MET, A GOOD GUY,

AND THEN I GOT MY BUSINESS PARTNER AND GOOD FRIEND RUSS MUNTZ

I'VE WORKED WITH FOR 20 YEARS AT THE CITY OF OAKWOOD AS A PUBLIC SAFETY OFFICER.

WE'RE GOING TO TRY AND REINFORCE SOME, UH, ENCLOSURE,

SO THAT THE LIONS WILL BE IN A SAFER ENCLOSURE

FOR THE LIONS' SAFETY AND THE PUBLIC'S SAFETY.

YEAH, BABY.

THAT'S A LOT BETTER.

[ man singing indistinctly ]

COME ON. COME ON. GET UP HERE.

COME ON, BOY. COME ON, BOY.

[ laughing ]

COME ON.

AH, THEY LOVE TO PLAY, MAN, I'LL TELL YOU.

DON'T YOU? DON'T YOU?

OH, YOU BIG OLD BABY!

HE LIKES THAT, BUDDY. HE LIKES THAT BALL.

HE'S LIKE A BIG HOUSE CAT.

Harrison: WE'RE COMING TO MT. HOPE, OHIO,

THE HEART OF AMISH COUNTRY.

IT'S KIND OF SURREALISTIC, BECAUSE THIS IS ONE

OF THE TOP AREAS IN THE COUNTRY WHERE THEY SELL

EXOTIC, DANGEROUS ANIMALS TO THE GENERAL PUBLIC.

IT'S A BIZARRE EVENT OUT HERE THAT THEY DON'T WANT ANYBODY

TO SEE WHAT'S GOING ON OR WHAT'S HAPPENING.

[ auctioning patter ]

[ snarling ]

OH.

ALL I KNOW IS WHEN I SEE PRIMATES,

IT LOOKS ALMOST LIKE LOOKING AT A HUMAN SOMETIMES.

MARMOSETS, BABOONS, MACAQUES, CAPUCHINS...

RIGHT. A LITTLE OF EVERYTHING, RIGHT?

SPIDER MONKEY. A VERY, VERY BIG VARIETY.

EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE I NEED TO COME UP TO THESE PLACES

JUST TO WALK AROUND TO SEE WHAT CRAZINESS IS GOING ON,

BECAUSE I CAN GUARANTEE YOU IS THAT WE'RE GOING

TO BE SEEING THESE COUGAR CUBS.

WE'RE GONNA BE SEEING THIS HYENA.

THESE ANIMALS WILL BE IN PEOPLE'S NEIGHBORHOODS.

IT'LL BE IN PEOPLE'S HOMES.

THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO HANDLE THEM,

AND THAT'S WHEN YOU'RE GONNA SEE US.

WHEN YOU FINALLY SIT BACK AND ANALYZE IT,

THE ONLY THING THAT WOULD'VE BEEN MORE BIZARRE

THAN WHAT WE ACTUALLY WITNESSED TODAY

WOULD'VE BEEN IF THEY SOLD A CHILD OR A HUMAN.

♪ PLEASE DON'T TELL ME

♪ YOU WANT TO GO HOME NOW

♪ THERE MUST BE SOMETHING

♪ SOMETHING YOU NEED TO BE DOING ♪

I'LL USUALLY TAKE HER WITH ME WHEN I GO SOMEWHERE.

JUST OUT HAVING A GOOD TIME.

THAT'S WHILE THE CAT'S WITH ME,

NEVER MEET A STRANGER, YOU KNOW?

VICKI SAID I HAVE THE GIFT OF GAB.

I'LL TALK FOREVER.

[ laughs ] WELL, I GUESS.

I LIKE PEOPLE.

BABY LION.

THIS IS TABITHA.

YOU CAN PET HIM. HE WON'T HURT YOU.

YOU KNOW WHAT THEY SAY.

THE ONE THAT FEEDS IT HAS TO BURP IT.

[ laughter ]

THANK YOU.

UH-HUH.

YOU GOT THE BABY?

YEAH, I GOT IT. WHAT YOU GONNA DO?

THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO BRING THAT BABY DOWN AND LET HER SEE HIM.

I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO MAKE IT DOWN YET.

I'M TELLING YOU.

SHE'S IN THE BACK.

GOTTA GET SOME...

I WANT TO GET SOME DRILL BITS.

I NEED DRILL BITS TO DRILL THAT PEN WITH.

OH, GOOD GIRL.

GOOD GIRL.

YES, SHE'S A GOOD GIRL.

A FARM IN RURAL MIAMI COUNTY

WAS HOME TO AN ELEPHANT UNTIL TODAY.

THIS MORNING, THE USDA TOOK TWIGGY AWAY IN CHAINS.

THE ZOO GOT A CALL LAST WEEK ASKING IF THEY WOULD TAKE

A 25-YEAR-OLD FEMALE ELEPHANT.

THE USDA WAS CONCERNED ABOUT THE ELEPHANT'S ENVIRONMENT

AND LACK OF FOOD, AND THAT'S EXACTLY WHY

THEY CONFISCATED TWIGGY FROM HER PRIVATE OWNER

IN NORTHERN INDIANA YESTERDAY.

Harrison: I'M GONNA TRY TO GO DOWN AND CHECK ON

LACIE AND LAMBERT TODAY AND SEE HOW THEY'RE DOING,

AND THE GOAL FOR THE DAY IS TO TRY TO GET THIS IMPLANT IN.

HOPEFULLY IT'LL WORK THE WAY WE WANT IT.

PLACE IT BETWEEN LACIE'S SHOULDER BLADES,

AND IT'S GONNA KEEP HER

FROM GETTING PREGNANT FOR TWO YEARS.

THAT COULD BE A GOOD WAY TO HOPEFULLY KEEP

ANY MORE LITTLE SURPRISES TO HAPPEN, YOU KNOW?

MY NEXT GOAL IS TO GET THOSE CATS IN A SAFER SPOT.

I'M GONNA TALK TO TERRY TODAY

ABOUT POTENTIALLY GETTING THE CATS MOVED SOMEWHERE ELSE,

BUT IT'S ULTIMATELY UP TO HIM TO MAKE THAT DECISION.

IT'S HIS CATS, AND HE'S NOT BREAKING THE LAW.

SO IT'S ALL IN HIS BALLPARK RIGHT NOW,

AND ALL WE CAN DO IS MAYBE TALK TO HIM,

MAYBE CHANGE HIS MIND,

MAYBE GET HIM TO THINK WHAT'S BEST FOR THE CATS.

[ growls ]

HEY, LACIE. HEY, BABY. RELAX.

SOMETIMES THESE ANIMALS WILL COME OUT OF ANESTHETIC.

YOU KNOW, ALL OF A SUDDEN, BOOM, THEY COME OUT.

IF SHE COMES AROUND, GET UP QUICK, COME UP,

MAKE SURE YOUR ARMS GO ON THE INSIDE

AND MAKE SURE HER PAWS GO ON THE OUTSIDE,

YOU GO INSIDE AND GRAB HER HEAD.

GET AS MUCH FUR AS YOU CAN AROUND THE BACK,

AND THEN KEEP THEM TEETH AWAY FROM YOU,

AND I'LL TRY TO TAKE THE BACK LEGS OUT

AND SLAM HER BACK DOWN, AS HARD AS YOU CAN,

BACK DOWN ON THE GROUND AT THAT TIME.

AND THEN WE'LL GET OUT.

Shh.

Yes, it's okay.

[ roars ]

Yeah, Lacie. Lacie, shh.

[ growls ]

THAT'S NOT A VERY GOOD BEGINNING.

[ laughing ]

SURE YOU WANT ME TO HOLD THE HEAD?

[ dart pops ]

I'LL TELL YOU.

YOU CAN SEE THE SIZE OF THESE PAWS,

BUT I WANT TO SHOW YOU THESE CLAWS. [ imitates snarl ]

GOD! THE SIZE OF THEM THINGS.

OH, YEAH. LOOK AT THAT! JUST, LIKE, WHOA!

THEY HOOK RIGHT INTO THEIR PREY, AND IT'S NOT GONNA GET AWAY.

HERE WE GO. TWIST?

YEAH, I'M GONNA TORQUE IT IN.

HERE WE GO.

OKAY, IT'S BEEN PLACED IN.

OKAY, I'M GONNA STICK MY THUMB ON THERE.

PULLING OUT.

OKAY.

[ snip ]

ALL RIGHT. THE IMPLANT'S PLACED.

...TO THE LAST GUY WHO WAS IN HERE.

[ indistinct chatter ]

SHE'S WAKING UP. SHE'S GETTING UP, TIM.

GET OUT OF THERE. GET OUT OF THERE. COME ON OUT.

[ indistinct chatter ]

I SEE THOSE EYES.

TO SAY THERE'RE-- FLAT OUT THAT THERE'S NOT

A LARGE CAT IN THIS COUNTY I THINK WOULD BE IRRESPONSIBLE.

THERE MAY, IN FACT, BE ONE. WHO KNOWS?

WARREN COUNTY WOMEN ARE BONDING

OVER A FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE.

THE WOMEN LIVE WITHIN A FEW MILES OF EACH OTHER,

AND THEY BOTH SAY THEY HAVE SPOTTED

A MOUNTAIN LION ON THEIR PROPERTY.

...EXPECT TO SEE ANIMALS LIKE THIS AT THE ZOO

OR EVEN OUT WEST, BUT THE WOMEN SAY

THEY SPOTTED IT IN WARREN COUNTY,

AND THEY SAY THEY'RE NOT THE ONLY ONES WHO HAVE SEEN IT.

THIS IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN YOU WOULD DO

OUT WITH WILD MOUNTAIN LIONS AND COUGARS.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA WALK UP ON IT.

YOU'RE NOT GONNA PUSH THROUGH A BUNCH OF WOODS

AND FORCE IT OUT-- IT'S NOT GONNA HAPPEN.

WITH THIS KIND OF CAT, WHEN IT'S RAISED

IN SOMEBODY'S RESIDENCE, IT'S A DIFFERENT STORY.

Reporter: THE WOMEN DON'T WANT TO SHOW THEIR FACES ON CAMERA

BECAUSE THEY SAY PEOPLE ARE ALREADY GIVING THEM

A HARD TIME FOR TALKING ABOUT IT.

THE FEELING THAT YOU GET FROM PEOPLE

IS ALMOST LIKENING IT TO HAVING AN ALIEN SIGHTING

OR A UFO SIGHTING.

I CAN'T SLEEP AT NIGHT

SOMETIMES AFTER CATCHING THESE ANIMALS,

'CAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN TO THEM.

IT'S REALLY KIND OF SAD.

HE'S DONE NOTHING WRONG.

THIS COUGAR'S DONE ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG.

YOU KNOW, IT AIN'T THE CAT'S FAULT.

YOU KNOW, HERE HE WAS.

HE WAS PROBABLY RAISED BY SOMEBODY IN SOMEBODY'S HOUSE

AND THEN DUMPED OFF IN THIS LITTLE PIECE OF HEAVEN.

IF I RESCUE HIM FROM THIS ENVIRONMENT,

HE'S GONNA GO INTO A CAGE

OR HE'S GONNA BE TAKEN SOMEWHERE AND PUT DOWN, PUT TO SLEEP,

OR BE TAKEN TO SOMEWHERE ELSE TO A RESCUE FACILITY,

AND MAYBE EVEN RESOLD, WHO KNOWS?

KIND OF MAKES YOU WONDER IF YOU REALLY WANT

TO CATCH HIM OR NOT, YOU KNOW?

WHAT'S GOOD? WHAT'S THE BEST THING FOR THIS ANIMAL?

AM I A HERO OR AM I A... THE VILLAIN?

[ chuckles ]

NOW YOU START MAKING ME WONDER

WHAT I'VE BEEN DOING ALL THESE YEARS.

'CAUSE YOU THINK ABOUT IT...

I DON'T HAVE ANY HAPPY ENDINGS.

YOU KNOW, IT'S KIND OF SAD.

NO HAPPY ENDINGS AT ALL WITH BIG CATS.

MAYBE IT'S, UH, BETTER IF WE JUST WALKED

OUT OF THESE WOODS AND NEVER BOTHERED HIM AGAIN.

HUH.

[ chickens clucking ]

[ Terry laughing ]

HELLO. HOW ARE YOU DOING, HUH?

WHAT ARE YOU DOING?

LOOK HOW BIG THAT CAT'S GETTING.

HELLO, LAMBERT.

HELLO, LAMBERT.

HELLO, LACIE.

[ laughing ] LOOK AT YOU! YEAH!

COLD WEATHER DON'T BOTHER YOU, DOES IT?

[ squawks ]

HUH?

NO, IT DON'T.

COLD WEATHER DON'T BOTHER YOU GUYS.

OH, YEAH.

YOU BEING LAZY?

[ laughing ]

IT WAS ROUGH. IT WAS ROUGH THIS WINTER.

WE'RE DOING ALL RIGHT. WELL...

IT DON'T SEEM LIKE A LOT,

BUT YOU GET ON THE END OF THAT PITCHFORK

AND YOU START PITCH-FORKING STRAW OUT OF THERE,

AND IT WEIGHS A TON FROM BEING SOPPING WET

AND YOUR BONES HURT,

AND THEN HAVING HEALTH PROBLEMS, TOO, YOU KNOW.

I'VE HAD BACK SURGERY, NECK SURGERY,

AND GETTING READY TO HAVE NECK SURGERY AGAIN.

LIKE I'VE-- WE'VE TALKED BEFORE,

AND VICKI'S ASKED ME,

"WOULD YOU DO ALL THIS ALL OVER AGAIN?"

AND I REALLY WOULDN'T.

IT SEEMS LIKE YOU'RE TRYING TO GET THINGS DONE,

AND IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYTHING'S AGAINST YOU.

THE-- AND YOU TAKE ONE STEP FORWARD

AND TWO STEPS BACK.

IT'S LIKE YOU'RE TRYING TO CRAWL OUT OF THIS HOLE

THAT YOU GOT YOURSELF IN, AND IT'S JUST-- IT'S HARD TO DO.

AND I'M NOT GONNA LET THESE ANIMALS

GET TO THE POINT WHERE THEY SUFFER

BECAUSE OF MY INABILITY TO, UH, MANAGE THEM.

I MEAN...

I'VE LAID AWAKE AT NIGHT AND THOUGHT ABOUT IT.

VICKI AND I'VE TALKED ABOUT IT.

NOTHING BUT...

I'M CONSIDERING...

GIVING ALL OF THEM AWAY.

IT, UH...

IT SEEMS LIKE IT'S--

IT'S TAKEN A REAL HARD TOLL ON ME THIS YEAR.

I'VE GOT A DECISION TO MAKE.

[ dialing ]

YES, UH, MY NAME'S TIM HARRISON

WITH A GROUP CALLED OUTREACH FOR ANIMALS.

I WAS LOOKING TO SEE IF I COULD GET

SOME ASSISTANCE FROM YOU, POTENTIALLY.

I HAVE FIVE AFRICAN LIONS--

ONE BIG MALE, ONE BIG FEMALE,

AND THREE CUBS THAT ARE OVER 100 POUNDS.

WE'RE LOOKING FOR SOMEPLACE TO POTENTIALLY TAKE THEM.

I CAN TELL YOU NOW THAT WE'RE NOT REALLY

GONNA HAVE ROOM FOR FIVE.

I MEAN, I CAN TELL YOU THAT RIGHT NOW.

THERE'D BE A SMALL CHANCE OF ONE,

AND I'D HAVE TO LOOK INTO THAT.

[ dialing ]

UH, BUT SEE IF YOU HAD ANY ROOM

FOR POTENTIALLY A LARGE MALE LION,

LARGE FEMALE, AND THREE CUBS THAT ARE OVER 100 POUNDS.

WOW.

YEAH.

I'M GONNA CALL THE ONE IN TEXAS.

[ dialing ]

THE GUY THAT MAKES THOSE DECISIONS ISN'T HERE,

BUT, UM, I WOULD SAY IT'S VERY, VERY UNLIKELY.

LET'S GO TO THE NEXT ONE HERE.

SEE WHAT'S UP HERE.

I DON'T WANT TO BREAK THEM UP,

SINCE THEY'RE ALMOST A LITTLE PRIDE THEMSELVES,

A LITTLE FAMILY, BECAUSE THE MALE AND THE FEMALE,

THESE ARE THEIR CUBS THAT THEY HAVE, TOO.

NO, I CAN'T HELP YOU THERE. I KNOW I CAN'T HELP YOU. SORRY.

THANK YOU FOR CALLING THE WORLD-FAMOUS

CINCINNATI ZOO AND BOTANICAL GARDENS.

FOR THE HEALTH OF OUR EXISTING ANIMALS,

WE ARE UNABLE TO TAKE INJURED OR ABANDONED ANIMALS.

WELL, I'VE CALLED PLACES IN FLORIDA, TENNESSEE, TEXAS,

INDIANA, MISSOURI, CALIFORNIA, PENNSYLVANIA, AND VIRGINIA.

WE'RE ALL IN THE SAME SHAPE.

OH. YEAH.

IT'S CRAZY OUT THERE, JUST NOBODY GOT ANY ROOM.

NOBODY HAS, HUH? NOBODY'S GOT ANY ROOM AT ALL.

...DETAILS THIS MORNING ABOUT THE BRUTAL CHIMPANZEE ATTACK

THAT HAS LEFT A CONNECTICUT WOMAN IN CRITICAL CONDITION.

AND NOW TO A VERY SERIOUS STORY, THAT CHIMP ATTACK...

FOR SOME REASON, TRAVIS THE CHIMP SNAPPED

AND WENT AFTER A WOMAN HE KNEW WELL.

TRAVIS LATCHED ONTO HER FACE AND WOULDN'T LET GO.

THIS ANIMAL WAS RAISED, LITERALLY, AS A FAMILY MEMBER.

I THINK IF THE OWNER WAS HERE, SHE WOULD BE SPEAKING

IN TERMS OF, UM, THAT YOU WOULD APPLY TO A CHILD.

Terry: LET'S HEAR THAT BIG ROAR TONIGHT, LAMBERT.

COME ON, BEFORE WE RUN OUT OF FILM HERE.

GIVE US THAT BIG ROAR.

COME ON.

HMM.

I GUESS NOT.

WE, UH, WE'VE SHUT HER UP FOR THIS EVENING.

[ throaty noises, growling ]

Man: FIGHTING THE-- Terry: HUH?

HE'S FIGHTING THE CAGE. I KNOW.

LOOK, LOOK. YEP.

COME ON, LAMBERT.

WE'VE GOTTA DO SOMETHING...

SOMETHING JUST HAPPENED.

SOMETHING HAD TO HAVE HAPPENED.

RADIOACTIVE SOMETHING, I DON'T KNOW.

I DON'T KNOW WHAT IT COULD'VE BEEN OR WHAT IT WAS.

I MEAN, JUST FLIPPING AND FLOPPING.

AND THEN LACIE WAS DOING THE SAME THING.

THEN NEXT THING YOU KNOW THOSE THREE STARTED DOING IT,

AND THEY STARTED ATTACKING EACH OTHER.

HE RAN OVER HERE BY LACIE.

HE WAS CHASING HIS OWN ASS LIKE HE WAS RUNNING FROM IT.

WHATEVER IT WAS, HE WAS TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM IT.

[ growling ]

IT'S NOT LIKE THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG WITH THEM OR SICK.

THEY WENT PLUMB STUPID ALL AT THE SAME TIME,

LIKE YOU FLIPPED A SWITCH.

I AIN'T NEVER SEEN NOTHING LIKE IT.

[ Lambert continues growling ]

IT MIGHT'VE BEEN, LIKE, A SOUND WAVE.

COULD'VE BEEN.

[ roaring ]

Terry: LAMBERT.

[ crying ]

COME ON, LAMMY.

[ groans weakly ]

Man: COME HERE, GIRL. COME HERE, LACIE!

COME HERE, LACIE!

COME HERE, LACIE!

[ grunts ]

BUB! WHAT, HUH?

IT'S ELECTRIC. HOW?

I DON'T KNOW. DID YOU SHUT THE MAIN OFF?

MAIN'S OFF! SHUT IT OFF.

IT'S OFF!

THE MAIN'S OFF. THERE'S NOTHING HERE.

IF IT WAS ELECTRIC, IT'D BE FEEDING

TO ALL THAT METAL, THOUGH.

HAS TO BE, BUB.

I KNOW IT HAS TO BE, BUT THERE'S NO WAY.

THAT'S ALL... THERE'S NO POWER ON THAT.

[ flipping switches ]

ONE FREEZER SHORTED OUT.

I'M SAYING THERE'S NO WAY WE COULD TOUCH THIS METAL CAGE IF IT WAS ELECTRICITY.

BUT I TESTED IT. IT SHOCKED ME.

WHERE-- WHAT'D YOU TOUCH?

RIGHT HERE ON THE WIRE.

TOUCHED IT WITH MY FOREHEAD. IT SHOCKED ME.

HOW DID WHAT HAPPEN?

LAMBERT!

LAMBERT!

NO. LAMBERT'S DEAD.

HE'S STILL BREATHING.

NO, HE'S NOT.

NO, HE'S NOT. NOT NOW, HE AIN'T. NOW HE'S DEAD.

Terry [ panting ]: OH, SHIT.

I'M DONE.

[ sobs, mumbles ]

[ indistinct ]

I'M DEAD, LAMBERT.

OH... OH, I HURT.

HURTS SO DAMN BAD.

[ indistinct ]

I HAD TO TOUCH MY FOREHEAD AGAINST THAT WIRE,

AND THEN I FOUND OUT WHAT WAS HAPPENING.

YEAH, JUST SOUNDS LIKE A...

A F-- SOUNDS LIKE A FREAK ACCIDENT.

NOBODY COULD EVER PREDICT THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN.

I'M TELLING YOU. - OH, MAN.

I GOT IN THERE WHILE HE WAS TAKING HIS LAST BREATH.

YEAH.

I JUST COULDN'T MAKE IT WITH HIM.

♪ SORRY, DEAR

♪ I CAN NEVER LOVE YOU NOW ♪

♪ I CAN NEVER CARE, OH, NO

♪ IN THESE LAST DAYS

COME ON IN.

[ muffled conversation ]

YEAH, I SURE MISS HIM.

[ sniffles ]

STILL FIGHTING THE SAME PROBLEMS OF...

THIS DEPRESSION I HAVE, AND...

LOSING LAMBERT DIDN'T HELP.

BUT I THINK IT'S TIME FOR A CHANGE. IT'S...

I TOLD VICKI, I'M JUST...

I'M JUST TIRED.

FRIDAY NIGHT I MADE THE DECISION,

TALKED TO MY WIFE ABOUT IT, AND...

TOLD HER I WAS GONNA LET 'EM GO.

[ ringing ]

WILD ANIMAL SANCTUARY.

YES, COULD I SPEAK TO PAT CRAIG, PLEASE?

OKAY. MAY I ASK WHO'S CALLING AND WHAT IT'S REGARDS TO?

IT'S TIM HARRISON. JUST TELL HIM IT'S AN URGENT MATTER,

THAT I NEED TO TALK TO HIM RIGHT AWAY IF I CAN.

OKAY, UM, WELL, HE'S IN THE FIELD RIGHT NOW.

HOLD, PLEASE.

ALL RIGHT, THANK YOU. OKAY, HOLD ON.

HELLO, THIS IS PAT.

HEY, PAT, THIS IS TIM HARRISON.

HEY, TIM, WHAT'S GOING ON?

I WAS JUST GIVING YOU A CALL.

WE HAD A SITUATION OUT HERE THAT'S DETERIORATED QUITE A BIT.

IT'S A... YEAH?

SITUATION WHERE I NEED TO MOVE FOUR LIONS,

THREE CUBS AND ONE BIG FEMALE. UM...

OKAY.

IT'S A BAD, UH... BAD WAY,

AND THERE'S A LOT OF TRAGEDY ALREADY,

AND WE WANT TO SEE IF WE CAN PREVENT ANY MORE.

FOUR LIONS? HOW URGENT IS THIS, YOU KNOW?

LIKE, YOU NEED IMMEDIATE? I DON'T KNOW.

I'D SAY WITHIN THE NEXT COUPLE WEEKS. THAT'S HOW URGENT.

AND THE OWNER'S WILLING TO WORK WITH US RIGHT NOW.

THE OWNER'S WILLING TO MOVE THE CATS RIGHT NOW.

WELL, I'LL SEE WHAT I CAN DO,

GO AND GET BACK WITH YOU.

WE'LL JUST, UH, WE'LL SEE WHAT WE HAVE RIGHT NOW.

[ indistinct ] ...WE CAN DO.

I TAKE IT AS A PERSONAL FAVOR

IF YOU CAN HELP ME OUT WITH THIS ONE.

I'VE TAKEN THIS, UM, SCENARIO VERY PERSONALLY,

AND, UH, YOU KNOW, I'D APPRECIATE IF YOU CAN MOVE--

BUMP US UP ON YOUR LIST.

ALL RIGHT, WE'LL TRY... AND SEE WHAT WE CAN FIGURE OUT.

ALL RIGHT, THANKS A LOT, PAT. I APPRECIATE IT.

OH, NO PROBLEM. YEAH, TAKE CARE.

THAT'S ALL WE CAN DO. JUST NOW JUST WAIT AND SEE.

SAY A LITTLE PRAYER, MAYBE.

[ water sloshing ]

GO ON.

[ chuckles ]

COME HERE.

[ laughing ] COME OVER HERE.

SIT DOWN THERE, AND I'LL GIVE YOU--

I'LL GIVE YOU A LITTLE BATH,

GET YOUR FACE WASHED BACK OFF.

COOL YOU OUT. HERE.

COME ON. HERE.

ALL THE OLD FOLKS YOU MEET, YOU KNOW, THEY'LL SAY,

"WELL, YOU NEVER MISS THE WATER TILL THE WELL RUNS DRY."

YOU DON'T.

ALL THE DAYS THAT YOU COULD'VE BEEN DOING SOMETHING

AND DIDN'T REALLY HAVE THE TIME...

AND NOW YOU MISS THOSE DAYS.

Harrison: WELL, ACTUALLY, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME

I'VE DRIVEN DOWN TO TERRY'S PLACE

THAT I ACTUALLY FEEL HAPPY.

EVERY TIME I'VE GONE DOWN, I'VE FELT MISERABLE, SAD,

YOU KNOW, "WHAT CAN I DO?" CONFUSED.

NOW I FINALLY FEEL A-AN IMMENSE LOAD

TAKEN OFF MY SHOULDERS THAT, UH...

SURVIVING CANCER, GOING TO A BEAUTIFUL FACILITY.

I'M VERY EXCITED ABOUT THAT.

I JUST CAN'T WAIT TO SEE THEM OUT THERE, WALKING ON GRASS.

I THINK THAT'S GONNA BE THE MOST AMAZING THING

TO SEE THEM ACTUALLY INTERMINGLING WITH OTHER LIONS

AND DOING WHAT LIONS ARE SUPPOSED TO DO.

HI, PAT. LET ME INTRODUCE YOU HERE.

OKAY.

TO TERRY.

THE YOUNG ONES HERE,

AND THE BIG FEMALE IS RIGHT NEXT DOOR.

SHE'S PRETTY WOUND UP.

TERRY.

PAT CRAIG AND HIS SON, CASEY.

[ indistinct ]

GOOD GIRL. GOOD GIRL.

[ growling ]

GOT IT.

IF YOU HAVE THE MIDDLE HANDLE...

COME ON, SAMPSON. SAMPSON!

GOOD BOY. THERE YOU GO.

HEY, GUYS, I KNOW YOU GOTTA GO,

BUT YOU MIND IF WE SAY A PRAYER REAL QUICK?

YEAH. ALL RIGHT.

DEAR HEAVENLY FATHER, WE JUST ASK YOU

TO GIVE, UH, TERRY PEACE, FATHER.

WE ASK YOU TO GIVE THESE, UH, ANIMALS SAFE TRAVEL.

LET TERRY KNOW HE'S DOING THE RIGHT THING.

AND, LORD, WE PRAY FOR THE CATS,

THAT THEY'LL HAVE A PEACEFUL TRANSITION.

WHEN THEY HIT THAT GRASS, FATHER,

THEY'LL HAVE PEACE OF MIND.

FATHER, THAT EVERYTHING WILL BE SAFE FOR THEM.

IN JESUS' NAME WE PRAY.

AMEN.

YOU KNOW, I JUST REALIZED, YOU KNOW, WHAT'S TODAY?

IT'S JUNE FIRST.

TODAY IS THE CUBS' BIRTHDAY. TODAY IS THEIR BIRTHDAY,

SO THEY'RE ACTUALLY LEAVING ON THEIR BIRTHDAY,

AND I JUST REALIZED THAT.

YOU KNOW, IT'S LIKE A REBIRTH FOR THEM, TOO,

THAT THEY'RE GONNA ACTUALLY GET TO GO SOMEWHERE

AND BE, UH, LIONS.

YOU KNOW, ACTUALLY INSTEAD OF BEING CATS STUCK IN A CAGE,

THEY'RE GONNA BE ACTUALLY LIONS WITH OTHER LIONS

AND, YOU KNOW, BECOME A PRIDE

AND, YOU KNOW, JUST GO THROUGH

THE WHOLE THINGS THAT LIONS GO THROUGH.

SO IT'S, UH, YEAH. THIS IS REALLY, REALLY COOL.

FREEDOM ON MY BIRTHDAY.

YEAH. DAY IT STARTED, AND THE DAY IT ENDS.

Terry: BUT I THINK LAMBERT'S LEGACY

WAS TO BRING HAPPINESS,

OR AT LEAST BRING SOME SORT OF... SOLITUDE.

Interviewer: DID HE DO THAT?

YEAH.
