hallo there
The better zoos tend to be outside the city where there's a lot of green space for the animals to roam. Some of these better zoos do have a positive function in helping preserve threatened species and even in helping in the repopulation of areas where species have diminished. But I agree there is something extremely sad in those zoos where an animal is left to pace back and forth in a little concrete enclosure.

G'day RobDon,

The zoo in Sydney sounds great, but I've always found something so sad about animals being enclosed in habitats that are made up.

Anyway, I hope you've had a great week off!!
