Chapter 1 - BAD ZOOS!

So what exactly does everyone think of zoos? Pretty, fun, awesome places to take kids on a hot day, where they can lean over the fences throwing peanuts to an elephant. People are so oblivious, do they even know about the kind of things that happen once everyone is gone and the animals are left in the mercy of their horrible, sick, animal blood lust zookeepers?! Well sure, not everyone is like that! I mean really, there are many zookeepers that love animals endearingly and take the job to be with their greatest passion. Indeed there are many zookeepers that would do everything to ensure the animal's health and well being, those ones I do respect, but of course where there's the angels there's also the devils...
You probably thought zoos were fun happy places where all zookeepers would serve the animals on their mighty thrones with slick golden plates (I bet that's what everyone wishes anyways) but no, no. There are some cruel heartless monsters that take the oppertunity of alone time with the animal to do some " special training". Just what do you think that training is exactly? What do they train them with? Love, compassion, encouraging and praising..? Snap back to reality! Monsters like those zookeepers do no such thing, they probably wouldn't know what those words mean for that matter! The monsters train animals with whips, bullhooks, and every type of animal torture device you can imagine! Take some examples: a young innocent elephant by the name of "Rose-Tu" was brutally beaten by a bullhook in an Oregon zoo. She suffered 176 gashes and cuts. Another elephant "Sissy" was to beaten half to death. Her suffering inflicted by an axe handle in the El Paso zoo. Does the inhuman blood lust stop there? Of course not! In the Saint Louis zoo a newborn chimpanze named "Edith" was snatched from her home and shuffled through over five zoo faculties untill she was finally thrown into a small roadside zoo in texas, her key to freedom thrown away. During an undercover investigation at her "home" PETA found Edith living in a filthy slimy concrete pit. All her fur had fallen out, and she was living on dog food. Many zoos even sell animals for slaughter. At the Minesota zoo, over 130 animals were shipped off to an auction house for slaughter. Now do you see? Now do you see what's been going on right under our noses? Doesn't it just make you want to cry..?
I mean honestly, what good do zoos do anyways? I don't think there's any point! We humans know what tigers, elephants, mokeys, etc are! So why do we need to press our noses up the glass walls and metal bar cages just to invade their privacy?! Like really, if you desperately need to see these animals then just take a trip to Africa!
Am I completely against zoos? Of course not! Only some of the murderous zookeepers. In many zoos I've seen the animals relatively happy and healthy, not only do people capture these wonderous creatures to be admired, but the also capture them to save the species from extiction! I know some zoos have captured tigers to save them from dying out, they hope to keep them healthy so they can breed them to populate the species more. In my opinion, those zookeepers should recieve medals. Especially if they're going to let the animals go afterwards. It's people like them that make our world a better place to live in! Now, back on the main subject...
Zoo babies. Zoo babies are amazing crowd-pleasers, but for how long? Only untill they grow up enough and are shipped off to some sort of sick auction house for slaughter! Or brought to a poorly constructed zoo to suffer that "special training" like all the other animals! As baby animals get older naturally, they attract fewer visitors. Many of these precious creatures are sold to a "game" farm where hunters will actually pay for the "privilege" of murdering them! The others? Mostly killed for their meat, or hides: where all "kings and queens" of luxury will gladly purchase.
Out of all of you people, who all supports zoos? Probably about half of you, am I right? Well stop it already! No offence, but the more you encourage them, the more savage they become! We should be supporting places like the International Primate Protection League, the Born Free Foundation and the African Wildlife Foundation. I hope one of these days people of the world will finally realize how unseen they've been all this time, and stop supporting these....animal prisons! I'm hoping people will take this all into consideration and finally: GIVE ANIMALS THEIR FREEDOM!!
