ZOO

Friday August 22, 2008 at 01:21PM

25 years ago I las visited a zoo. It made me so sad that I said to myself that I would not be going to a zoo anytime soon. So many unhappy animals gathered in one place.

Well. The zoo here in Copenhagen has been improving a lot of things, so a few weeks ago, Rebekka and I went to the Zoo. Things have improved, a lot, but there are still animals that imho seem pretty unhappy.

"The happiest elfants in the world" has been the slogan this summer. I don't know how they can figure that out on behalf of the animals. The happiest imprisoned elefants in the world, maybe :)

Anyway. I did bring the camera and now I have the time to do some uploading.

hmm actually it's just entertainment and business. just think about all those balloons, toys.... money.
whatever brings money will be practised by people. but why do we go there? we have so many national parks in each country... but we choose noisy, mucky places full of pain and suffering.

positive thing is conditions are still being improved and i hope in few years, decades, people will open eyes and just won't be going to such a places. it will be their natural death...

I had not been there for 25 years and I will not be going again soon - seeing the insects was more interesting than the animals.
