As a kid I lived in Memphis, about two blocks from the Overton Park Zoo. I remember hearing lions grunting in the night. They don't actually roar. I haven't actually heard what the impacts are of Tiger Haven on the neighbors other than fear of the beasts. All farms have a certain amount of impact. How is this one greater than normal?

“I think it’s a step in the right direction and I’m very hopeful that we can get this resolved and not have to take the matter to court,” said Commissioner Mike Hooks
