Frank Cuesta (53 years old) is wrapped again in a controversy. In the last hours, a series of audios has come to light through X (formerly Twitter) that have generated outrage among Internet users. The recordings contain statements of the naturalist himself who could not only stain his public image, but even lead to legal consequences in Thailand.
In the material, whose authenticity has not been denied by Frank, you can hear the presenter himself talk about an alleged purchase of delicatas for his sanctuary. «I just caught three small Soutics and they have left them quite cheap. They have given me three by 30,000. It is an investment because we have to have delicatas, that people like surium whores », you can hear.
But the most alarming of his statements comes later, when he talks about a plan to eliminate certain animals that would have hurt their land. «I am going to make a mix of cat food with poison dust, so that the son of a bitch is eaten and burst inside. I’m very sorry, but it’s what there is. If you have a cat, you keep it at home, ”he says.
-However, the theme that generated more indignation in networks is his statements about the dogs that are in the surroundings of the Freedom Sanctuary. «I will put poison every fucking days until all the fucking dogs die. (…) I’m going to load them all, I will continue to put poison until all the surrounding dogs die. I am very sorry for the dogs, but they are killing my animals and I have to take care of it, so the bad predator, kill him and ended, ”said the naturalist.
Dozens of their followers have turned against them, have shown their indignation in networks and have demanded the corresponding explanations, which is why Frank broke their silence through a statement in which he claimed to be being a victim of “pressures, threats, blackmail, defamations and complaints” by several people. “My family and I have decided not to make any statement until the end of all the current judicial processes,” he wrote and added that the published information is being “filtered, manipulated and exposed with a clear purpose of destroying both my professional and personal life.”
The audios in question would have been filtered by ‘Chi’, who was a friend of Cuesta for years and above all, his right hand in the sanctuary. It should be noted that Frank himself revealed that his friendship came to its end of forming abrupt several weeks ago. “You can think about destroying me, that the truth is that the carpet is full of shit as you say, that we have known each other for 10 years and you are the person with whom I have spent the longest, you are the only friend I have or that I have had and you will come with shit …”, said the herpetologist in his YouTube channel.
These audios could aggravate the legal situation of Cuesta in Thailand, who faces charges of abuse and illegal possession of animals, for which he was arrested on February 28. The material spread on social networks could have legal implications against the naturalist and could face a penalty of up to two years in jail and a fine of up to 1000 euros.
