Globe's Animal Farm

Already visited the zoo:

"The tegu is a black-and-white reptile that can be kept as a house pet, according to Tammy Cohen, a manager at Zoo Creatures, a Plaistow, N.H., pet store that sells the lizards. Cohen said the animals are harmless, and a fairly common choice as a house pet. “They are legal,” MSPCA spokesman Rob Halpin said. “They are not very common pets in Massachusetts, though, because they’re not very friendly.”

I wonder what is really going on at that farm and why federal officials have moved in. 

Hope you don't mind me ducking out early today.
