Roadside Zoos and Menageries Most often, the word zoo conjures of images of large zoological institutions such the Metropolitan Toronto Zoo, the National Zoo in Washington, DC or the San Diego Zoo and Wild Animal Park in California. These zoos, and a handful of other facilities like them, have created a belief that the majority of zoos have become high tech reservoirs of animal science and technology geared towards the preservation of endangered species and conservation education. The public has been led to believe that zoos are modern arks - an important lifeline for vanishing species threatened with extinction. But public perception doesn’t always reflect reality. Roadside Zoos: A Canadian Plague Throughout Canada, hundreds of small zoos, roadside menageries and wildlife displays exhibit wild animals to the public. Sometimes these displays are little more than a few caged animals meant to attract customers to a gift store or garden centre, while others are more like traditional zoos. Commonly referred to as "roadside zoos", these displays comprise more than 90% of all wildlife exhibits in Canada. Estimates place their number at more than 300. Miserable Living Conditions Often started by well-meaning but ill-informed people, most roadside zoos fall far short of providing even the basic necessities of life to the animals in their collections. Barren, poorly designed cages that are so small, they provide almost no opportunity for natural movement or exercise; improper floor surfaces; lack of shelter and privacy; poor quality feed; filthy water containers; cages littered with feces, candy wrappers, rotting food and other garbage; and lack of appropriate veterinary care are common.

A Letter From the Publisher SPAN Team Subscription Form Subscription Info Previous Issues Other Publications Public Affairs Section Home Dr. Josiah Harlan of Philadelphia An American in Punjab and Afghanistan, 1827-1839 By JEAN-MARIE LAFONT Also See: Koran: An Open Book The Silk Road: Connecting Cultures Circle of Feelings E arly relations between the United States and India are yet to be fully assessed, particularly in their triangular connections with France in the aftermath of the Treaty of Versailles (1783). The result of this treaty was the exit from the British Empire of a new world power in North America. But in this same period, in Asia, almost every Indian state quickly passed under British hegemony between 1792 and 1818. With the lone exceptions of Punjab and Sindh, the map of the subcontinent was increasingly “turning red,” the color of British territories. Josiah Harlan was born in Newlin, Chester County, Pennsylvania, in 1799, the year Maharaja Ranjit Singh captured Lahore and founded the Sikh kingdom of Punjab. His eldest brother, Richard, was a physician, and young Josiah seems to have dabbled in medicine and surgery before he sailed on a merchant ship to Canton. Returning to America, he sailed out again—to Calcutta where the Bengal army, being short of surgeons during the Burmese War, enrolled him in July 1824. He served in Rangoon in 1825, then in Karnal with a regiment of Native infantry. He was on leave in Ludhiana in 1826 when he was informed that an order had been issued for the dismissal of temporary surgeons from the British army.
