Governor Jindal’s website motto says, “I’m asking you to once again believe in Louisiana.”

Today, we are doing just that.

After tolerating 21 years of a truck stop in Gross Tete, LA holding tigers captive in substandard conditions, we “believe” the time for Louisiana to put an end to this abuse is long overdue.

It is now!

Tony, the latest in a long string of tigers being held at the Tiger Truck Stop, has lived in a tiny chain link and concrete cell for 10 years. No larger than a couple of parking spaces, his cage is next to gas pumps where truckers pump fuel around the clock. There are always a dozen or more trucks with their engines idling, belching fumes, as well as all the cars that stop for gas. He is constantly exposed to harassment as people taunt him. A sign on the cage asks people not to throw rocks at him. He can never escape the noise, the flood lights and the boredom as he paces around in circles.

We “believe” that Louisiana is better than this.
