Browns Oakridge Zoo
Brown’s Oakridge Zoo is a privately-owned backyard menagerie, big cat breeder, and cub-petting operation in rural Smithfield, Illinois. They don’t have the publicity of some exploiters, but they’re every bit as bad, in our opinion, and the sad part is that nearby residents, news reporters, and even local governments and businesses have been duped into […]

Temple of Isis
The “Isis Oasis” is an Egyptian-themed neopagan temple/spiritual retreat which houses a pseudo-“sanctuary” that is home to (as of 2015) 1 bobcat, 3 ocelots, and 3 servals. The cats live in small, concrete and chain-link enclosures with little to no enrichment, and while I couldn’t find any confirmation, some people believe that they’ve been declawed. […]
