Caged animals in zoos are deprived of their normal society, their families and mates. <br />Tigers can’t run, birds can’t soar the sky, monkeys can’t swing through the trees, and elephants can’t roam over large distances. <br />Animals which would naturally roam for tens of miles a day, tread the same few paces. Some of the fastest animals on earth live in pens so small that they could not gather pace to a trot, let alone full speed. <br />Some zoo enclosures deprive the prisoners’ most basic behaviors including exercise, social interaction and bathing. <br /> <br />For more information please go to: <br />http://onlyonesolution.org/multimedia-articles/lunatic_asylum.html
