So, I dropped in and spoke to the soon-to-be new owner who verified this little tidbit, and he says the change will occur officially on August 1. I promised to return to interview him for Wallyhood--especially since he pointed out several framed photographs of exotic animals from all over the world, and told me he was the one who photographed them in the wild.…
