        Obviously you haven't been to brookfield zoo lately.  next time
        you go pay attention to the interactive exhibits!  
        Not people to animals but animals to animals.  
        They're new exhibit Habitat Africa opens in may, I've seen the 
        plans, it's truly a conservation and not an exploitation exhibit.  
        Zoos do have a ways to go to make animals active in a controlled 
        environment.  Before you say that they shouldn't be caged at all, 
        think of the great strides made in the captive breeding and 
        releasing projects to repopulate almost extinct species.  The fact
        that they love the animals, and care about their survival is extremely
        evident if you take the time to talk with any of the great people at
        Brookfield Zoo.
