What is this blog's purpose?

This blog was created as a convenient way to display emails I've received while corresponding with the owners/supporters of Guzoo Animal Farm as well as the more uplifting emails opposing the zoo.

The purpose of this site is to educate the public about 'Guzoo Animal Farm', a roadside zoo in Three Hills Alberta. Their animals are kept in deplorable conditions that are not only cruel to the animals, but dangerous to the visiting public. Guzoo falsely claims to be a rescue/sanctuary, and misleads the public into beleiving they are supporting a just cause.

Facebook - "I made a choice a long time ago to NEVER visit the Guzoo"

I made a choice a long time ago to NEVER visit the Guzoo. This decision was based on comments that I heard from friends that went there and a little bit of research I did. As an animal lover, I must admit I was tempted to go and possibly pet and have my picture taken with a lynx, tiger or bear. However, I knew this would be selfish and irresponsible of me. I will not support a place like this. I am proud to say I have not been there once. I could have easily gone there myself if I was not informed of the disgusting conditions prior. I am happy to see that the people that have been there are now speaking out against it. I could not imagine seeing these poor animals in person.

The photos are heartbreaking! It was sad and difficult to look at the photos but becoming informed on the current conditions that these beautiful animals are still forced to endure is the least I can do as they suffer each day.

Lets get the word out!!

I can remember going to this place when i was in my senior year of high school. It doesn't look like much has changed from then to now, and back then they were being investigated by the animal rights commission. I hope they get sentenced properly and for the animals, i hope they can be either re-released, or put in a facility where they can be looked after properly, like the Calgary Zoo.

This is terrible. I cannot believe that nothing has been done to help these poor animals. How can people treat them this way? I would never want my children to see how people that call themselves a "zoo" have such blatant disregard and respect for wildlife. I will be sending an email and a letter or two.

Disgusting doesn't start to describe how I feel about this establishment (using the term loosely). I can only imagine their reaction if they were made live in such conditions. I bet the AB government would be falling all over themselves to help them out. It might take time, but what goes around comes around and they will get theirs.
