When I was younger, I was a fan of zoos. I loved feeding and touching animals and as a kid, I wasn't scared. I got a soft heart and I really did love those beautiful creatures. Ever since, my parents already opened my heart to share love even to animals.
Everytime we go out of town, we make sure to visit animal parks and farms. It was fun seeing them until I realized how bad captivity is to animals. My favorite killer whale, Tilikum, died because of some health problems and too much stress as he was in captivity for 34 years. He spent most of his life performing in a damn show. His death was an eye opener to me that animals deserve to be kept in the wild where they really belong. Yes, it is fun seeing them but they have a life to live as well.
Recently, there are photos and videos of an ostrich running around a village that are circulating on facebook with captions like "this is what we need right now". Ostriches are not pets, okay? Leave them to where they should be.
