Animal cruelty charges raise questions about controversial roadside zoos

A Quebec roadside zoo owner was arrested and his zoo is now in the hands of animal welfare investigators. They say the Saint Edouard Zoo was a scene of cruelty and neglect, finding a collection of animals trapped in poor conditions. Some roadside zoos have faced scrutiny and fines before, but charges like this are unusual.
