| Message | "Mr. Speaker, I see no reason that zoological institutions should be forbidden from holding exotic animals. In fact, it is often necessary for zoos to hold endangered animals to protect them from extinction. If zoos can't hold these near-extinct species, then it is highly likely that they will disappear from this planet altogether. I oppose this bill and urge my colleagues to do the same."
