To follow up on Renee's post (4/11/07), we contacted the Humane Society and they stated it was in the hands of the Janesville, WI Police Department. The person involved was raising snakes and rodents, then selling them to local pet stores. The animals involved were not in bad shape and well cared for - he just had too many animals and was running a business out of his home without the proper credentials is what was told to me. The Humane Society will contact us if the need arises. We have also been in touch with Dave (Dookin Dave's Ferret Rescue) in Beloit, WI. He is also aware of the situation.
