Lincoln Park Zoo in Chicago seems to be the centre of protests by animal welfare activists on an on-going basis.
Conditions for the animals in the zoo must be exceptionally bad as animal deaths are reported regularly. It's a shame, because zoos play an important
role in helping endangered animals alive. There must be something
wrong at a zoo where 3 monkeys die in one week.
I much prefer Fota Wild Life Park here in Cork as the animals have so much more room to roam.
Since October, the zoo's two other elephants, two gorillas, a camel
and three langur monkeys have died. The monkeys died this week after
being transferred to another exhibit.

At the LA zoo they also have this just because one of the elephants died even though she was really old. The activist blame the zoo for her death even though the zoo had nothing to do about it.
