Everyone knows what a zoo is. But the old image of animals walking back and forth pathetically in pens that are too small is, fortunately, a thing of the past almost everywhere. Zoos are increasingly doing their best to imitate the natural environment of their animals. And to give the animals more space.

Despite their supposed concern for animals, zoos are rather “collections” of exotic animals: they are not shelters or homes for animals. Even under the best conditions, it is impossible to duplicate or come close to recreating something to their original habitat.
The animals are prevented from performing most of the behaviors that are innate and vital to them, such as running, flying, climbing, or being accompanied by other species’ companions.
Zoos only teach the public that it is acceptable to interfere and keep animals in captivity, despite their boredom, overcrowding, loneliness, and deprivation of the most basic natural ways of their species.
Often animals that occur together in the wild are also put together in zoos. In addition to the animals, there are often playgrounds and a terrace or restaurant where you can eat or drink something.
For a trip to the zoo, your child does not have to be able to walk yet, but it is fun when he has some awareness of animals and the sounds they make, for example. From the age of one and a half years, your child usually understands what animals are and that they are fun to watch. After that, the zoo is fun with children of all ages.
