Zoos

Agriculture, agriculture, agriculture, hmmm.
I was listening to a podcast a while ago(I can't remember the channel, name or host) that was hosting a discussion on the pros and cons of zoological parks. The two men on the show were talking about how a chimpanzee was passed around to five different zoos and  finally ended up at a roadside zoo, in a concrete pit, hairless and surviving on dog food. Or there is a zoo someplace like Brazil or Argentina where on can ride lions or hand-feed bobcats.What has the world come to, humans demeaning animals as a source of entertainment. Yes it is true that the good care of animals has progressed nicely over the years but there is an endless amount of room for it to get even better.
