Musings from the Merse
Monday, January 16, 2006
Having lived in Africa Huttonian avoids zoos specially those that lock up big cats in small cages. But with a small granddaughter around a visit to a Zoo is inevitable sooner or later and Regent's Park is better than most The tiger seemed contented enough with its lot
and the lion and his mate seemed more interested in recycling a christmas tree than disturbing foreign news that they would be exposed to in their natural habitat. Ms Z took the oppurtunity to wear her latest South Atlantic gear in an attempt to up stage her Parisienne cousin

I know what you mean about Big cats in small cages.
My daughter, who loves animals, loves Zoo's too. Luckily, the institution of the Zoo has changed out of all recognition to those i remember being taken to when I was a child.
All that said - zoo's still leave me feeling uncomfortable

Yes Smudger I agree. But Regents Park tries hard, the beasts are comfortable and I think the Royal Zoological Society does its bit for the preservation of endangered species-like the lions which are Asian and not African.
