Ben P Gilbert's Zoos On The Web Expanding collection of profiles of zoos, Aquariums and Wildlife Parks in the UK and beyond, with information on animals to be found there (including mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, fish and invertebrates), and other facilities. http://uk.geocities.com/gilbertbpuk
Extractions: Welcome to Zoos on the Web! I know, I know - it's been a long time again! But not to fear, to enable the site to be updated more regularly I intend a series of mini-profiles of European zoos. These will mean that the number of zoos covered can be increased quickly, and then I can add more details in the future to upgrade to a full profile. I also have a new ZT animal almost ready for release - it should be up in the next few days. I'll give you one clue as to what animal it is - it's mentioned on the Antwerp Zoo page! :-) I also intend adding a page on the doings of the splendid Independent Zoo Enthusiasts' Society in due course. Bienvenue au siteweb 'Zoos on the Web'! Dedans vous trouverez des arcticles et des photos des zoos d'Europe et du monde, et aussi des animaux crees par Oryx pour le jeu de Microsoft et Blue Fang 'Zoo Tycoon'. (attention: a ce moment les articles et les animaux ne sont qu'en anglais! Je suis en train d'ajouter les sommaires francaises aux articles.) Pour passer aux autres pages, il y a des liens sur ce page-ci. Si vous voulez que je clarifie quelque-chose, ou vous voulez contribuer des photos ou un article (en francais ou bien en anglais), il ne faut qu'cliquez sur mon adresse email.

Circus--Zoos zoos, Sheryl Lee comment by the TV and Movie star. 69 Don t zooscontribute to the saving of species from extinction? zoos often http://www.animalliberationfront.com/Practical/Entertainment/entertai.htm
Extractions: Zoos often claim that they are "arks", which can preserve species whose habitat has been destroyed, or which were wiped out in the wild for other reasons (such as hunting). They suggest that they can maintain the species in captivity until the cause of the creature's extirpation is remedied, and then successfully reintroduce the animals to the wild, resulting in a healthy, self-sustaining population. Zoos often defend their existence against challenges from the AR movement on these grounds. There are several problems with this argument, however. First, the number of animals required to maintain a viable gene pool can be quite high, and is never known for certain. If the captive gene pool is too small, then inbreeding can result in increased susceptibility to disease, birth defects, and mutations; the species can be so weakened that it would never be viable in the wild. Some species are extremely difficult to breed in captivity: marine mammals, many bird species, and so on. Pandas, which have been the sustained focus of captive breeding efforts for several decades in zoos around the world, are notoriously difficult to breed in captivity. With such species, the zoos, by taking animals from the wild to supply their breeding programs, constitute a net drain on wild populations.

Extractions: Since approximately 1250 B.C., when ancient Egyptian records describe birds, lions, and giraffes in captivity, zoos have entertained millions with exotic animals behind bars. Today, with species threatened and habitats disappearing worldwide, zoos are playing a new role in conservation. But are they really achieving what they claim? A growing number of critics argue no. Read the full According to the American Zoo and Aquarium Association (AZA), there are over 10,000 zoos worldwide. In the U.S. alone, the Department of Agriculture licenses 2,400 "animal exhibitors," of which 212 are members of the AZA, an organization that requires high standards of animal care, science, and conservation.
