We’ve been to a lot of zoos in our time, and often they just make us sad. I don’t want to sound smug, but when you’ve seen animals in the wild, in their natural habitats, it’s harder to see them in zoos without just feeling bad for the animal, about the zoo, and a little bit bad about yourself for paying for it. There are exceptions, of course, and we’ve seen wonderful zoos in San Diego, Auckland (and others I’m forgetting). We almost didn’t go to the Singapore zoo, mostly because it involved what seemed like a complicated bus trip, but we’re so glad we did. It’s definitely a zoo that you’ll leave feeling glad that you went.
