That's sad. Zoo's are so educational to little kids. I love zoo's. Haven't been to one in years. But that doesn't stop me from saying that zoo's should stay out of it.

I think zoos are sad and depressing. What's more sad and depressing? The former zoo animals becoming New York City bums and vagrants. . . .

@Everybody: I like going to zoos. They are educational. You learn so much about animals. I'm sorry the Bronx Zoo has been affected by budget cuts.

I don't know.. I'm not one of those people who thinks animals are better off in the wild or something. I mean, they may not get as much roaming space in a zoo, but they are so much less likely to be eaten!

Anyway, that is sad that the budget thing is effecting the zoo.

Never been to the zoo here, is it good? I don't like watching animals behind bars, it depresses me a little too much. And i"m guessing the zoo can't afford vast acreage to let the animals roam and frolick, hunh?
