Tell About zoo?

Sometimes they’re legal, and sometimes they’re not. While many private zoo owners have caused problems at one time or the other (like the Vietnam veteran who released the exotic animals in his Ohio zoo before committing suicide), drug lords, who keep these zoos as a show of wealth and power, have taken the private zoo business to a whole different level.

in some instances, things have gotten a bit more serious. At the Gaza Zoo in the Gaza Strip, four masked men armed with Kalashnikovs made away with a four-month-old lion cub and two Arabic-speaking parrots.

There are a wide range of scenarios that are built around the animals, the exhibits and guest interest.

There are so many illegal zoos owned by drug lords that in July 2011 alone, 5,500 animals were seized from gangs operating in Mexico. These wild animals are often used for brutal purposes, such as execution—the Mexican Zetas gang (a cabal made up of former military commandos) has been known to feed their enemies to tigers

In “The White Heron” the heron was protected from the hunter by a girl. The girl could represent a zoo while the young hunter could represent people who exploit animals

Bear cubs have even been forced to box each other for the amusement of a cheering crowd. As expected, the animals are not always cooperative, so to make them participate, zoo officials often employ different “training” methods—which have included beatings and prodding with metal hooks. Big cats like lions and tigers also get de-fanged.

Anti-zoo movements are organizations made up of animal rights activists who are against the keeping of animals in zoos. While zoos insist they are only helping the conservation process, anti-zoo organizations say otherwise.

“Animal presentations are an extremely important part of the Zoo’s mission,” said Steve Taylor, Assistant Director of Conservation, Education and Collections. “Guests are able to connect with keepers and the animals.

Private zoos can range from being simple backyard enclosures to massive sprawling ranches, owned by either individuals or organizations. Sometimes they’re legal, and sometimes they’re not.

They insist that if zoos were really interested in conserving animals, they would conserve them in their natural habitats and not in artificial, stressful, and boring (for the animals) conditions which deprive them of physical and mental stimulation. They believe zoos are simply profit-driven businesses which play on the emotions of their visitors through such nefarious plots as displaying cute animal babies to drive up ticket sales.

They can be observed in social situations and can be understood better than if they were wild. A down side to this is once the animals become adapted to being cared by humans, they are less likely to survive in the wild.

They hear that Jahari the pygmy hippo is 11 months old, he likes to sleep in the water with his mom and play with the water hose.

While many private zoo owners have caused problems at one time or the other (like the Vietnam veteran who released the exotic animals in his Ohio zoo before committing suicide), drug lords, who keep these zoos as a show of wealth and power, have taken the private zoo business to a whole different level.

“A lot of the enrichment, husbandry, or preventative health care animal training that we do happens behind the scenes,” said Taylor.

Tatiana was a female tiger that went berserk at the San Francisco Zoo on Christmas day in 2007. The four-year-old Siberian tiger—which was later put down—injured a man named Kulbir Dhaliwal, killed 17-year-old Carlos Souza Jr., then followed Kulbir’s blood trail to a zoo cafe, where she tried to finish the job on Kulbir and his brother

In this case, there is no purpose for keeping the species alive.It also allows people to see rare and exotic animals from around the world.

By the time police arrived, the cat, which weighed 136 kilos (300 lbs), was found sitting beside one of the brothers. When he called for help, she proceeded to attack him again. While the attack itself wasn’t surprising (since that’s what wild animals are known for), how and why Tatiana escaped from her enclosure was.

“At these presentations, we can bring this training to the forefront, show guests some of these techniques and expand on how they allow us to take better care of the animals in our collection. It’s exciting to observe and full of surprises.”

Seeing these animals as a child might, in some cases, spark a desire to be in a career that involves animals. Zoos also are a form of entertainment.

San Francisco Zoo authorities initially claimed Tatiana’s exhibit wall was 5.5 meters (18 ft) high, but they later confessed that it was only 3.8 meters (12.5 ft) high. Still, 3.8 meters is pretty high, so the fact that Tatiana still managed to jump out is pretty amazing. It’s been speculated (though not proven) that the three men she attacked had been taunting her before she escaped. A tiger can only take so much.

the Mexican Zetas gang (a cabal made up of former military commandos) has been known to feed their enemies to tigers. In other cases, the animals are used as drug couriers—a process which involves the animal’s body getting surgically opened and stuffed with cocaine-filled condoms before being sewed shut again.

They allow humans to come very close to nature, in what appears to be a natural habitat, but this should not be the main purpose for zoos.

Animals don’t always get along well with each other, especially if at least one of them is a carnivore. But at the Garold Wayne Interactive Zoological Park in Wynnewood, Oklahoma, a baby chimp, a baby wolf, and two baby tigers have bonded together and become inseparable

Each year Utah’s Hogle Zoo has thousands and thousands of visitors. Many of our guests have wonderful experiences that they’d like to share.
