Can you speak to your opinion on the matter of the environmental benefits of exposing people to wildlife (i.e. the argument that if people see the animals they will b more likely to care and hence do more for the environmental movement)

Charley LaFayette

I have a zoo back home that made me feel that it was was there mostly for the money. I felt that they didn't have enough resources to keep some of the animals and did not provide enough space for them. Now I hate going to zoos even though I love animals and would love to experience watching them a little bit closer. Do you think zoos are ethical?

I've wondered what the personalities of ancient megafauna would have been like. If an amphibian was gator-sized or an emu was giraffe-sized, how do you think they would have acted?
