There are many contradictions in your comments simple. For example, you complain about the shows being taken away at the aquarium yet those shows are some of the most inhumane things done to animals. Yet you are complaining about animal treatment. You complain about animals "hiding" but maybe they were resting rather than being forced to parade around. They have comfortable spaces to just be themselves. Meet the animals on their terms not yours...it is not all about you.

As you say, these things increase revenue which I trust allows for better care for the animals and improvements in zoo infrastructure which also benefits our animal friends. RWP Zoo just received I believe 5 million for improvements from the city of Providence. Serving the city and region by providing educational infotainment to children and adults creates goodwill resulting in additional tax supported funding which should further improve conditions for the animals. Some of the malcontents in this discussion just bitch about everything and fail to see the things that are going right and the improvements being made. I acknowledge shortcomings for RWP zoo, but the trends are positive. RWP in general is a treasure of lil Rhody.
