The Oregon Zoo vs. Lily Tomlin: Celebrity activist wants to 'free' the elephants | OregonLive.com Lily Tomlin is harassing yet another zoo. In what universe is it a rational idea, to transport the oldest male Asian elephant in the United States, when the new enclosure will be opened in less than two years? Perhaps a petition for Lily Tomlin to retire should be in order.
I hate when celebs stick their noses in where they dont belong. Who are they to tell others... specialists in their field... what to do? Geeze its bad enough they blather on at the rest of us telling us to donate to this and that saying its just a dollar a day or something, when they sit there with more money then they can possibly use in a life time. But telling zoos what to do with the animals they have loved and cared for most of the animals lives is stupid. At least shes not trying to buy Packy from the zoo the way Bob Barker bought Toronto Zoos elephants (no one can convince me he didnt bribe our corrupt coke addict mayor and probably most of council). If shes so upset Packy and the herd arent in better living conditions why doesnt she cough up some serious cash to get construction moving even faster or to help develop this preserve? Guess really helping him isnt part of her agenda.
