    I love this comic.

    However, I did want to point out that a large number of zoos are part of endangered species breeding programs. They also function as wildlife education for schoolkids in cities who otherwise would see dogs, cats, birds, fish, and the occasional horse in their lifetime. They often aid local universities’ biology departments; how many of those khaki-shirted volunteers are grad students? More than you might think.

    The public exhibition aspect is, in the better zoos (which this obviously is not), secondary. Every animal in the Rio Grande Zoo has a place to hide from peeking, poking, noisy kids.

    Don’t worry Blue, I definitely don’t have an anti-zoo agenda! I do love going to zoos, but I sometimes feel bad for the animals and that’s kind of what lead to this.

    …Stupid bear, in somewhat silly latin, I think.

    Also, this comic amuses me. ^_^
