If you ask a child to draw a picture of an animal in a zoo, chances are they will draw an animal behind bars, we want to change that image

The Zoo

(I couldn't find the exact quote but that's close enough I think)

It’s important to understand that ultimately groups like PETA (or its cousin, the Humane Society of the United States) don’t want to make better zoos. They want to phase out the use of animals—whether at a zoo, on a farm, or at a circus. Some activists go so far as to question the ethics of pet ownership. Serious issues are facing animals of all stripes and in all corners of the globe. If organizations like PETA and HSUS have their way, it will be more than zoos and aquariums that go extinct.
