I hate all zoos, circuses and animal amusement parks, such as Sea World.

17. Pretty soon there will be no large wild animals.

All that we will have will be pictures.

So many species are right on the brink of extinction. It's only going to get worse as humans destroy their habitat or poach them for whatever it is that people can get money for. We can either just let them all die out or we can try to save a few.

Life in the wild is no piece of cake. Most wild animals have pretty short lifespans. And a lot of the time the life they do have is precarious. Most are full of parasites. They are constantly searching for food so they don't starve to death. Or they are killed for food by other wild animals. It's really not a glorious, free lifestyle. That's a huge myth. The whole natural system is kill or be killed.

I'm hoping the zoos and the animals refuges can save a least some of these animals.
