Good morning friends,
I have been inundated with messages with respect to the incident in Campbellton, New Brunswick on Monday. The zoo is very saddened of the news and our hearts go out to the families involved.
At this point in time there is a lot of speculation as to how this has happened and what could have been done to prevent it. It is critically important that we wait for all the facts before making any assumptions about this situation. As well, please keep in mind when watching media coverage that there is tremendous speculation without all the facts. These facts will come to surface soon enough. Many of the comments that are being aired to TV and printed in the papers are just that - speculation - and interviews are often edited which can lead to incomplete thoughts.
I will do my best to answer questions about this situation however please keep in mind I have never been to the facility in question and do not know the individuals involved. My thoughts and prayers go out to the family,
Sincerely,
Paul “Little Ray” Goulet
From what I know of snakes, it makes no sense at all that the snake should go on a killing spree. The whole purpose of a snake hunting is to eat its’ food and nothing else. I cannot understand why the experts in this field cannot see that and look for the true cause of these poor childrens’ deaths. It is very easy to take up a vigilante mentality and the need to find a scape goat, even if it is innocent. Many times in the past lynch mobs have taken matters into their own hands only to find the accused innocent in the end, when it is too late!
