The County Board is considering whether to make it illegal to keep wild and exotic animals in Arlington County, Virginia. Adam M. Roberts, CEO of Born Free USA, applauded Arlington’s proposal. “The exotic pets problem is pervasive from coast to coast,” he said, adding that there are more tigers in American homes than in the wild around the world. “If animals escape, or if animals attack, or if animals are confiscated, it becomes a public problem to address.”
