Well, I visited Dublin Zoo a few years ago and I thought some of the enclosures they had for some of the animals were disgraceful and not at all adequate, that definitely is something that I don't think is right.

It is a bit sad seeing wild animals locked up in Zoos but it's no where near on the same league as Circuses, they're still left to be Elephants and Lions in an enclosure that is similiarish to their nature habitat and especially with animals that are in danger of being wiped out in the wild, I can see the benefits of Zoos for breeding these animals and trying to keep the species going.
