You only need to see these animals out in the wild to see just how amazing their lives are out there.
You read all these nice brochures and talk to really nice staff, the animals don't. They are surrounded by concrete and metal bars put to display for us to snap pictures and point fingers at all day.
do you pay the animals or do you pay the zoo?
Next time after a trip to the Zoo just switch on nat-geo or grab a nat-geo mag or just best just go to Africa and see how their world there compares to that cage in the middle of your city.
A Lions territory in the African Savannah is about 100sq miles, yet the zoo keeper will tell you "oh we give them plenty of space". What a bunch of BULL.
And as far as conservation is concerned... the zoo's only need an animal to appear on an endangered list to add to their money making assets.
If you really want to conserve these animals, conserve their habitats! That's where they are meant to live!
They keep changing the name zoo to all sorts of new buzz terms like "bio enclosures". Zoo's are an industrial complex regardless of whatever they choose to call themselves.
This is my opinion but feel free to do your own research, in fact start with Wikipedia and scroll to the bottom to see the crap they've been keeping from you.
to think that zoos are morally wrong?
