Gazoo had a long history of offences related to animal care and importation:

I think the Gazoo really represents an outdated view of animal welfare. It's shameful that they were allowed to operate for this long. Should have been shut down a decade ago. Small rusty cages in Alberta are not the place for exotic tropical and African animals. Even the Calgary Zoo has improved their enclosure by leaps and bounds by provided multi-million dollar habitats. I really don't see how a small time zoo can possibly provide the right kind of condition for these animals.
