This poor lil guy is a captive at Okinawa World in Okinawa Japan. He is one among many of the animals kept there that are not treated up to American standards for animals. He seemed drawn to me the moment I knelt by his cage. It broke my heart to leave him. I have learned much about culture and other countries views towards animals and their treatment. Learning these things, makes me proud to be an American. I truly believe any animal small or large has the right to a happy life.
