The problem with London Zoo is it was built in a different era
most of the buildings are listed and there isn't much space left to actually keep animals with the space these days modern collections would think it's fair to keep them. The elephants are long gone up the M1 to Whipsnade where they have acres of space. Whipsnade is cool because most of the animals up there who would otherwise not really want to be around human beings have that option to wander off into the distance. I can't help thinking the gorillas should follow. There simply isn't enough space for the gorillas in Regent's Park to have people out of their faces. Other animals such as big cats don't appear to be that bothered. Horse for courses I guess.
