Unfortunately what I see as unethical and unacceptable others may well look past because it is not happening on their own door step and they don't have the need to see the connection. I don't think it's fair to name and shame until I've exhausted all my options.

I'm sure other people can make up their own minds. At present it just looks like you've changed your mind and are seeking justification for a get-out.

Doesn't look like that at all.

It's an animal charity (zoo) who's ethics used to be spot on. Recently I've discovered that they have paid for animals from canned hunt operators in South Africa (to the tune of £60,000 for two animals) and plan to breed these already inbred animals. They have also misled the public in a separate fund raising appeal claiming they are diversifying the gene pool of these animals and one day hope to return them to the wild. I won't get on my soap box and bore you with the details but these claims are utterly false and without provenance.
