I think they get depressed. I was concerned when I first saw their sorry state in a Chicago zoo but it looks like a frequent occurance among camels in small enclosed areas.

All the politics and animal rights issues don't occur to a little boy or girl who is happy enough to see the animals, hear their sounds, and even smell their smells. Armenians have a long way to go vis-a-vis animal rights, cruelty, and so on, but small steps are taken all the time, I suppose. One picture jumps out at me from your photos: why does the camel look the way it does? Onnik, would you mind if I put these pictures on my blog, too? They came out very beautifully!

As if being in a cage isn't bad enough. Making money by torturing a lion cub is yuck to me. As if being in a cage isn’t bad enough.

I don't know what's so hard about cleaning the place properly. OK, they have financial problems and can't feed them animals well, but cleaning? That's like the cheapest thing to do, isn't it?

Yuck! :(( “…one of the keepers made many a family happy by taking 500 drams off them to pose with one of two lions cubs taken out of an enclosure.”
