Wild animals are not toys, and they are not pets. It's time for people all around the world to grow the heck up and stop acting like they are entitled to make toys and pets out of everything they see because they are just glorified four-year-olds. It's time to bring this stuff to a screeching halt and right now. If the people who run zoos can't behave properly and respect wild animals, it's time to shut down the zoos entirely. Zoos are for education, particularly if some animals have been tamed or injured and cannot survive in the wild. Zoos are also for breeding programs to re-populate species in the wild. Zoos are never for this and we must make it stop.

Thank you for signing “Lujan Zoo petition”

You I have to add when one comes out of their vegitative state and bites someone and kills them the cat will be the one that pays and that is so wrong in my book...

Definitely signed this one. How degrading can one get. Penny in the slot toy animals until one kills a child doing what come naturally to a wild animal. First we have to learn to respect wild animals before we move onto caring for their futures. this place seems to do neither...just exploits them which is so wrong.

#476...I checked on this and had signed back in August this year...but will foward. Shocking how some of these petitions get through the cracks and get missed unless you pick them up with a story.

Angie is so terrific on pulling out all of these petitions for me in a long page and all a do is sign and then forward.

Will forward this one...

Part of the petition says the following:

The animals appear to be very sedate and tame, with keepers seen 'playing' rough and tumble games with them.

I think the animals have been drugged for them to allow this happen.

And like some people have commented, if something goes wrong and the animals attack, its the animals that are going to pay the price.

What can I add... I'm Argentine. I was bitten by a monkey when I was a little girl due to this deplorable and dangerous interaction. I was lucky I didn't lose a finger... Animals are not toys and certainly they are not here for our amusement. Just respect them as they are!!!
TY, Cher. This struggle continues...

Humans are proud of their brain, their ability to think, and voice their mind. Our kind boasts on and demands respect to freedom and independence. We are angry when our little kids are sedated and put on shows, or sold as prostitutes, yet we keep treating other God's creation as if they are worthless while they keep quiet about our sins.

We should be ashamed of ourselves.

Thanks noted and signed. It's just so sad. It's all about the mighty dollar! It's always that and yet it still amazes how far people will go for it, until like we all agree, someone gets hurt. And then these poor animals pay with their lives.

This is so severely stupid, butter yet these people are severely stupid. And of course guess who is going to take the brunt of it. Right the animals of course, one way or the other! I don’t even like the fact these and many other animals are even in cages. First of all there’s not enough room, their out of their on natural environment basically imprisoned. This is wrong, so wrong. Who in the hay thinks it is or ever was ok to do such a hideous crime to cage such large animals.
Something else for the human race to control...
