Wonderful!  Animals in cages.  Isn't that a pretty site?  It breaks my
heart.

Trees like that are for city dwellers who have never been adventured much
into nature.  I've never seen more beauty than a wild forest which has
hardly been touched by humans.  It's so beautiful, so natural, and so
peaceful.  A tree they way that you described it in a zoo is only a sample
of the beauty that can be found in a forest.
