Zoos make me sad.
I like seeing the animals; but after looking through plexiglass, bars, and fences for a while, I start feeling like I'm visiting a prison.
If the animals had actually been convicted of something, I'd feel better.
"In the next case is the chameleon convicted of identity theft".
"The enclosure to your right holds the great panda serving life for armed robbery".
"These spider monkeys were part of a Breaking and Entering syndicate that took police 6 months to solve".
The gorillas are usually so locked up they seem like the 3 time losers of the animal kingdom.
If zoos are prisons, then safari parks must be minimum security facilities for white collar criminals.
Petting zoos resemble half-way houses; the animals seem to have a small chance of returning to normal society.
If I was a different animal than I am now, I'd want to be a blue whale; because they ain't sticking me in no zoo!
And if they actually made something that could hold me, it's going to cost someone a hell of a lot of money.
