(440) Ashtabula in the News: How Weird Can It Get?

Yes, the rather rural + impoverished county of Ashtabula, OH is back in the news--this time, it's even national (though the PeeDee reported the story in most detail).

I wonder: Why are bears (and cougars!) kept in Ash. Co.?? Possibly for the convenience of being able to see big game off Route 6, rather than have to travel out West (either to wild country, or even the Cleveland Zoo [which I don't condone, btw]).

This place in tiny lil' Hartsgrove remains mysterious: It has been described as an animal park, but I also read an allusion to a fur farm. What's going on here + why are some guy's bears attacking his neighbors? I say SHUT IT DOWN!
