Seems like pacifists and environmentalists began stuff to close the zoo because of how they're being treated in there. I've been a few times and it seems somewhat decent but some of the animals, especially the lions, are pretty restless and recent government actions from the last government destroyed the economy, minimizing the funds to maintain it.

What does the BLF think?

i think it's great that the animals won't have to worry about you visiting

im sure many other Arg forumers join you in your opinion

Difficult to say, having never seen the zoo and its conditions.

Zoos should be supported, but I believe they need a focus on breeding and conservation.
There is no point keeping animals in zoos purely for entertainment/business. They should be in there for protection and breeding, with the aim of increasing their global population with a further goal of releasing animals back into the wild.
