Why dont they have a HUMAN exhibit at the Zoo?

Question

They are the most interesting creatures on earth!

Answer 1

They do. The zoo is really a giant human exhibit for the animals!

Answer 2

Step back and watch the families at the monkey exhibit.
It can be quite interesting.. Sometimes I think the wrong creature is in the cage.

Answer 3

You can go to downtown Los Angeles and see human exhibits all over the streets, there is no reason to have one at the zoo.

Answer 4

That is a interesting question, but of course humans are everywhere to observe. They have prisons, which are like human zoos in a way. I perfer the free range humans. Seems more humane to let them roam.

Answer 5

Humans strip bare for zoo exhibit

The eight were selected from 30 hopefuls
Eight people have been chosen to spend the August Bank Holiday weekend almost naked and on display at London Zoo.
Visitors will see the humans, who will be treated like animals, kept amused with games, music and art.

But after each day in the open Bear Mountain enclosure the bunch - naked except for well-placed fig leaves - will be allowed home for the night.

The Human Zoo hopes to demonstrate the basic nature of man and examine the impact they have on the animal Kingdom.

Cambridge University veterinary student Simon Spiro, 19, from New Malden in Surrey, was selected from among 30 hopefuls to take part in the project.

Pocket Scrabble

"I'm a veterinary student so the idea of working for a zoo was something that appealed to me," he said.

"I'm not even worried by the fact it might be cold and rainy. I've brought Pocket Scrabble in case we're bored."

"The only problem is I won't have any pockets to put it in."

Brendan Carr, 25, from Aylesbury, Bucks, said his motto was to "dream like you'll live forever, live like you'll die today".

I got a laugh like a hyena but get the hump like a camel, so cover me in fig leaves as I'm the ultimate mammal

Poem by one of the applicants

The actor, model, musician, martial arts expert and fitness fanatic entered the competition by writing a poem.

It read: "I'm funky like a monkey and as cool as a cat, talk more than a parrot, up all night like a bat.

"I got a laugh like a hyena but get the hump like a camel, so cover me in fig leaves as I'm the ultimate mammal."

Other volunteers on display are Anna Westbury, 27, from London, who described herself as "zoo obsessed" and Thomas Mahoney, 26, from Cambridge, who wanted to "get back to nature".

Human Zoo runs from Friday until Monday.

Answer 6

Actually Dear the whole world is nothing more than a BIG Zoo and believe me The Govt is watching us laughing their ***'s off, think on that for a while.

Answer 7

Because there is a great thing that seperates humans from animals. though by truth humans are anumals, we still feel that we are above them in everyway. So to trap a human and sit and watch, is considered 'wrong'. I would recommend you read the book "Ishmael" by Daniel Quin. It delves into this and how humans must change the way they treat the world or they are going to break themselves.

Answer 8

There are enough of human exhibits roaming around in the streets.

Answer 9

that's what swinger clubs are for, if we stayed at the zoo, the government would not be happy, people must work at legitimate jobs, someone's gotta be exploited and the zoo already makes money exploiting animals

Answer 10

I don't know. That's a good idea. You should open a zoo like that. Tell me when you do! I wanna come visit it. Lol!!!
