USDA Fines Waccatee Zoo

Failing to provide a limping aoudad sheep with adequate veterinary care and failing to provide animals with sanitary, potable water were just some of the issues that prompted the U.S. Department of Agriculture to fine Waccatee Zoo in South Carolina $7,800, according to the agency’s records. The roadside zoo—which PETA dubbed the “worst roadside zoo in America”—was fined for six alleged federal Animal Welfare Act violations.
