  1. The only time I will accept animals in zoos if they are loved and cared for. I hate that there pens out so small in some zoos and have nowhere to run. Some zoos actually care about there animals. I'm a animal lover and I hate to see animals sad. These zoos our great because of the care for the animals thank you for the video!

  3. San Diego zoo should be on this list
