With the rate at which these animals are being killed by poachers... it seems that after few years we will see them in Zoo's only. But i prefer seeing them in their natural home i.e., Wild Life sanctuary or national Parks.. but inn the wild and open area. Tell me where would you like to see them.

i would much rather they be allowed to roam free than stuck in some zoo with too much concrete and people bothering them. ideally, i'd love for them to be able to roam free, but humans have ruined that idea.

I also agre with you, Damn it would be exciting to go on some wildlife safari and watch the animals in their natural habitat. I feel its sad and boring when they are caged up, since its not natural for them. Also it must be a pain in the a** being there, looked upon by tons of tourists armed with cameras and stuff.

plus, there are always evil people who taunt them and throw stuff at them. i think a lil natural selection should be fitting at the zoo, mess with a tiger, get eaten.. that type of thing!

I love to travel and see native animals in the wild. I went on a safari in Kenya and saw giraffes, rhinos, a leopard, elephants and lions. I have been to Australia and seen koalas and kangaroos. In New Zealand I saw dolphins and penguins. I adore snorkeling and have done this with black tipped sharks and sting rays in French Polynesia. I realize that I am lucky to have seen so much wildlife in living in the wild in many different areas of the world. I think wild life sanctuaries do valuable work for animals. I don't tend to visit zoos. I get more enjoyment from seeing wild animals in the place they normally live. Though I so wanted to see a kiwi in New Zealand I visited a wildlife park. I don't like poachers and like to hear about conservation efforts. When I was in Belize I went out on a boat to watch manatees. I was delighted to see a ranger's hut and notices about rowing in the area rather than running a motor.
