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!

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?
