They had the money, they have the space and the plan, and they are bringing her a companion. Politics almost landed her in Mexico. Politics are keeping her in Dallas. Politics are keeping her from the sanctuary.<BR/><BR/>I know my reaction is more negative than possibly warranted, but damn -- and do you know how many times the Mayor's office said it's all on the zoo? Jenny is a living being and she shouldn't be subject to so much politics when she's not entitled a vote.<BR/> <BR/>Regardless, thanks for the update Mary Ann: I've been checking for news weekly.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08369629608272488082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7542283982574941529.post-87697570969200439712008-08-21T03:34:00.000-07:002008-08-21T03:34:00.000-07:00At least she isn't going to Mexico and MAYBE thing...At least she isn't going to Mexico and MAYBE things will get better at the Dallas Zoo.

That said, I can't stand the Dallas Zoo and never could. The exhibits are a bad joke for the animals. <BR/><BR/>TN would have been ideal IMO. I still don't get why they wouldn't send her. It's all politics.<BR/><BR/>Bear's MomThe Brat Packhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04041320650336825999noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7542283982574941529.post-59540407062969657082008-08-20T17:57:00.000-07:002008-08-20T17:57:00.000-07:00I saw the story about her in the NYT and was worri...I saw the story about her in the NYT and was worried--do you think this is good? I've heard really good things about the TN sanctuary. Sigh.
