Now you've hit upon another debatable
point. I've read/heard on the news
repeatedly that the disease is NOT
transferred through eating cooked
poultry, but only through close contact
while the birds are fully feathered.
Would the zoo have fed their tigers
whole uncooked chickens? Well, come
to think of it, they feed them uncooked
horse meat, so maybe they would.

Personally, I don't have the time or inclination, but I look at it as a fascinating trend.
And yes, I do believe that zoos feed animals a majority of raw food. Here's an example:

Unfortunately, you have to scroll way down to find this:
Tigers live for up to 20 years, Yates said. They're noisy even after being spayed or neutered. They eat 15 to 20 pounds of raw meat a day.
