I thought being able to see them in person would be neat‚ but once I saw them “up close and personal‚” it was evident that the animals were miserable.

To put it simply‚ zoos are imprisoning animals

I’m not here to discuss whose fault it was or even if it was necessary‚ everyone else is doing that. What I am more interested in is people’s reaction to it. Several questions occurred to me. Why is it that people’s first reaction was not exaltation

Zoo or Prison People always say that animals are our friends; that is why we’d like to go to zoos to see those animals. But are the animals happy about being locked in cages and being seen by people everyday? Or do they want to live in the environments that they are supposed to live?

I consider it is an experiment because of how the reactions between the two characters Peter and Jerry lead up to an intense and life affecting climax between the two. The idea of The Zoo Story is about a middle class man with a
