If legislation goes through, Rainbow Ranch, located west of Nashville, IL could be restricted on the animals that travel in his petting zoo. A proposal in the state Senate would call for banning bears, cougars, giraffes, gray and red kangaroos, hippopotamuses, jaguars, leopards, lions, non-human primates, rhinoceroses, tapirs, tigers and zebras, from being used in traveling animal acts, such as circuses, petting zoos.
