“Let the Zoo’s Elephants Go”
by Les Schobert
by Les Schobert
Elephants are the largest creatures that walk our
planet,
yet tiny humans can capture, transport and then force them
into tiny enclosures
despite the fact that their typical environment is 1000 square miles.
Our National Zoo is a disgrace without oversight; it is committing a sin keeping elephants in an inhumane environment, and then murdering them when the elephants lose their will to live.
This raises a bigger question:
Does any zoo in the world have an authority overseeing the treatment of wild creatures that are so homesick for an environment they will never see again that they lose their will to live?
