Through the Petition – as bolstered by expert declarations, Petitioners’ November 18, 2013 comments, Petitioners’ supplement dated December 2, 2014, and Petitioners’ letter dated March 31, 2015, all attached (Appendix A) and hereby incorporated by reference – Petitioners have presented 1 copious scientific evidence that it is unsafe and inhumane for AWA-licensed exhibitors, breeders, and dealers to allow members of the public to have direct contact (or unreasonably close contact) with dangerous wild animals, regardless of the age of the animal. See 81 Fed. Reg. 41257 (June 24, 2016); 78 Fed. Reg. 47215 (Aug. 5, 2013); 78 Fed.
