well I disagree if many cases animals in zoo's are cared for better than one's in the wild and in alot of cases the animal that is encaged is endangered and in same cases unable to care for themselves.Now even in the case where the animal is healthly or not endangered they got it made food brouhgt to them and a inhouse doctored, and how do you know how it makes them feel you linked into there brain no you are just asumming that.I don't know anyone who doesn't like going to the zoo and seeing animal's otherwise they would not be able to.
