I'm offended that they are using Mike's likeness on the petition without properly compensating him.

I like that we have a live mascot and all, It's cool.

But I don't see the need to waste money on such a silly thing.

Probably just walked the campuses at Berkeley, Boulder etc to get them all.

Would like to know how many are from LA.





Inclined to agree with you on that..

If this passes, then every animal at every zoo needs to be freed. Because Mike has a better home and gets taken care of just as well as any animal in the zoo.

And If the argument is that he is lonely, get him a tiger hooker.

Do those ridiculous people know that mike is an "oops" tiger and therefore not natural? He's half and half Bengal and Siberian. A million dollar habitat is the perfect place for him (i.e., LSU) since he shouldn't be used for breeding.

They give no alternative to where he is now.

He can't be released in the wild. He would die very quickly.

There's not that many people from LA that signed. They're all from the northern and western U.S.

I also like how they don't mention the other tiger that's about 10 miles away at a truck stop in the fine town of Grosse Tete. They can just f**k off.

I'm against caging animals that were born in the wild or breeding caged animals that were meant for the wild.

Tgis is neither of those. We are mikes best option.

He's certainly safer locked in his so called cage than in the wild


You'd certainly be safer in a padded cell, too. Even if you were served gourmet meals 3x a day, I doubt you'd like it, though.

He should be transferred to the Tiger Truckstop. That tiger looks very happy an has an awesome habitat.

I would hope he gets WAY better treatment than that.

Most zoo animals get treated like shite and most zoos have a vet on staff that can't get a job at a clinic.

It's funny. Mike's habitat is nicer than most zoos including San Diego's
