"Raccoon Zoo's Bootlegging Disgrace"
Alyssa Ashcroft, staff writer.
A recent inquiry into the finances of Elliot Martin (67), chairman of the local zoo's board of directors, has revealed shocking news.
The Washington Treaty specifically prohibits the trade of rare orchid specimens, but Martin has repeatedly defied this ruling, according to an anonymous tip from within the zoo.
If this is true, many questions arise regarding the funds derived from these sales. Is this new flora exhibit truly a place for children to dream and learn, or is it merely an illegal money-making scheme?
