The amusement park would be more fun in the short term, but the zoo would be better in the long run.

No one should pick "Zoo"

No one should even support zoos for that matter.

The same rides and shows would get tiresome after a while. Seeing my favorite animals would never get old.

The zoo

If there was some sort of world food crisis i vould live for a month on just one elephant drumstick.

🎶If I could spit roast the animals, just imagine it

Chomping on a chimp in chimpanzee

Imagine tucking into a tiger, chewing on a cheetah

What a neat achievement it would be

If we could char grill the animals, learn all their languages

Maybe take an animal degree

I'd stew elephant and eagle, buffalo and beagle

Alligator, guinea pig, and flea

I would consume a polar bear and python

And I would cure a fillet kangaroo

If people ask me, "Can you eat rhinoceros?"

I'd say, "Of courseros, can't you?"

If I consumed all our furry friends, man to animal

Think of the amazing repartee

If I could wok fry the animals, torch the animals

Grunt and squeak and squawk esting animals

As they move through me

If I consumeed the quadrupeds

Think what fun we'd have asking over crocodiles for tea

Or maybe lunch with two or three lions, walruses and sea lions

What a lovely place the world would be

If I sauteed clam with orangutans

The advantages why any fool on earth could plainly see

Discussing Recipes and dramas, tha srt of cooking llamas

That's a big step forward you'll agree

I'd learn to snack on antelope and turtle

And my Pekingese would be extremely good

If I were asked to barbecue hippopotamus

I'd say, "Why notamus" and I would

If I put parsley with pachyderms

It's a fairy tale worthy of Hans Anderson and Grimm

A man who wok fries the animals and tastes all the animals

Grunts, and squeaks, and squawks from eating animals

As they move through him

Let me hear 'em talk

I'd crunch every creature in a sandwich

So I could eat all of them on site

If friends said, "Can he taste a crab or maybe pelican?"

You'd say, "Like hell he can" and you'd be right

And if you just stop and think of it, ain't no doubt of it

I'm gonna win a place in history

If I could wok fry the animals, taste all the animals

Grunt, squeak, squawk from eating animals

And they could squeak, and squawk, and speak, as the move through me 🎶

Amusement Park. Zoos can be dangerous if u attended; a lion or gorilla could escape and kill you, that is, if no one else lives there to tend to the animals.

Would get bored of the same rides after a while. With the zoo I could study animal behavior and variance.

Depends on the quality of the zoo and amusement park. Mostly I'd pick zoo if it has a variety of animals.

I always get tired of stuff like this. Do you people actually believe they're torturing these animals or something?

so lets say I put you in a cage or a place with a barrier of some kind. You're well fed and bathed and you have all the conditions of a normal home, except its in a cage and everyone comes to look at you doing your everyday activities. Tell me you like that now

@takenstew22: I don’t need to imagine that stuff if I actually know it for a fact.

You can clearly see the missing life will and joy in the faces of these poor animals.

Apart from that, they don’t need to be tortured to still go insane under the conditions they have to live in.

Stop comparing animal behavior to humans. I'm sure some of them aren't as happy as being in the actual wildlife, but people like you think it's a massive crime or something lol. If we had the same intellect and behavior as wild animals and put in cages for entertainment do you think we would actually be able to look into the bigger picture or something? Think for a moment.

If animals go insane in zoo's it's most likely because they were treated like shit. I'm not saying putting animals in cages can't be criticized, but the fact is the zookeepers have to treat these animals with care in order for them to get used to their own home.

What's the difference between that and keeping a pet? Why are you ascribing human emotions to animals?

never said it was a crime. I only said that keeping something living in a cage or watch it do it day to day activities for our amusement is wrong morally

Maybe we're more intelligent. That doesn't change a single thing. Animals have emotions like us. Seperating them from their parents for nothing is just wrong

@killbilly I never said I approve of pets. And the difference is that pets are taken out for a walk(at least dogs are) and aren't used for amusements. They're kept as pets because people actually care for them(mostly) and are not showed off

Most zoos provide more than adequate facilities to allow the animals to exercise. Most zookeepers care about the animals they take care of a great deal. I don't think animals seem to mind being "shown off."

Not when they have secluded areas where they can go if they start to get annoyed by people anyways.

the keyword is in bold. You don't know if they're bothered or not. Most of them are seperated from parents and from their home and brought into a cage. And as I said what would you feel if you were shown off even tho well cared for and having your private space? animals can feel emotions bro

Pretty much all th zoos that don't should and are being shut down. What's the problem?

Puppies are separated from their mothers at birth as well. Animals aren't traumatized by such things. They have short memories and don't put as much meaning on familial bonds as humans do.

Studies show that observation from humans can have positive impacts on the animals as well. The majority of the negative impacts that can result from such observation is something the animals can avoid by simply walking outside of the observation area: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6617010/
