Police Found 70 Goats Living In Man's Home

POSTED: 3:04 pm EDT June 25,  2004
A man is being investigated for animal  cruelty and now he's trying to get 
the attention of animal activists.  
Chris Weathersbee, 62, from Corinth, is doing it by starving himself.  
Weathersbee got in trouble when police found about 70 of his 250 goats  
living inside his home.      
He said the hunger strike will get animal rights activists to possibly  help 
him finance an animal sanctuary.

"It is as if life had said, 'I am going to send  you into a world of cruelty. 
I shall make you sensitive to pain, fear, heat,  cold, hunger and starvation. 
In this world of cruelty, I shall make you  defenseless. In addition, I shall 
strike you dumb.' This is the kind of world  that animals are born into." -
