OUTRAGED animal welfare activists – including The BIRDS star scren legend Tippi Hedren – are blasting Kirstie Alley for keeping exotic ring-tailed lemurs as pets on her California estate!
The 62-year-old “Fat Actress” star has at least nine of the monkey-like animals in a large metal cage on the lawn of her Los Feliz home.
She says they are well-fed and maintained at a cost of about $40,000 a year and cared for by two keepers.
But incensed experts say the endangered species belongs in the wild.
“These creatures need to be in their natural habitat – and I would tell Kirstie that myself,” actress and animal rights activist Hedren told The ENQUIRER in an exclusive interview.
“We cannot give wild animals the one thing that they need.”
