I went to the Denver Zoo today to take some photographs, and realized that at the zoo, some animals are more equal than others. The Denver Zoo just recently constructed a huge space for both the lions and elephants to roam around in. However, the jaguar in the photograph above is stuck 24/7 in a very small cage, and spends his time pacing up and down along the bars of his cell, dreaming of being set free. This is truly just inhumane. As my friend Roddy, the photography professor at the University of Denver once said, maybe they should just eliminate zoos entirely, instead of prolonging the suffering of these animals. Definitely something to think about.
