This theme park in Georgia home to several animal displays has been listed on IDA's Worst Zoos for Elephants list for the fact it keeps Shirley, its single asian elephant (the oldest in the world at 75!) alone. Worth mentioning the park did keep two other elephants with her before they passed...
Hey y'all I know this sounds like a really dumb question and perhaps others have already asked this, but what does it mean when a zoo claims to be a walk-through zoo???

Hey y'all so on my previous thread I wanted to know all the mammals Omaha Zoo currently has, but then I decide to redo the list especially after I found out that this website called Global Species had a list of animals at the Omaha Zoo. But when I went through that list I notice some aniimals...

@pachyderm pro created this thread a while ago, about an idea for zoos in the distant future. It gave me an idea about how farming, zoos, and conservation could blend together in the future.

Hey guys so I am awfully curious but does anyone know why you can not participate in a wild animal encounter if you been outside of the United States or Canada within 10 days prior to the encounter? Cause I was looking at Zoo Atlanta's website and they had on each wild animal encounter that you...
