如果天气好的时候，去动物园是一个不错的选择。爱丁堡动物园的一个特点就是很多动物都是可以近距离，甚至零距离的接触。比如The brilliant birds（鸟馆？），虽然鸟不多，但是人和鸟都是在一个笼子里面的，也有很多动物，最近的距离可能只有几十公分。在进行每日特别活动时候，你甚至可以抱一抱不同的动物，当然大多数都是小朋友去抱。
野生的动物的话，当然还是放在笼子里面的，多少有点落寞和孤寂呢。
I don't wanna be kept, I don't wanna be caged

From Wiki:
Edinburgh Zoo, formally the Scottish National Zoological Park, is an 82-acre (33 ha) non-profit zoological park located in Edinburgh, the capital city of Scotland. The mission statement of Edinburgh Zoo is "To excite and inspire our visitors with the wonder of living animals, and so to promote the conservation of threatened species and habitats".
The land lies on the Corstorphine Hill, from which it provides extensive views of the city. Built in 1913, and owned by the Royal Zoological Society of Scotland, it receives over 600,000 visitors a year, which makes it Scotland's second most popular paid-for tourist attraction, after Edinburgh Castle.[1] As well as catering to tourists and locals, the Zoo is involved in many scientific pursuits, such as captive breeding of endangered animals, researching into animal behaviour, and active participation in various conservation programs around the world.[6]
Edinburgh Zoo was the first zoo in the world to house and to breed penguins. It is also the only zoo in Britain to house koalas and giant pandas. The zoo is a member of the British and Irish Association of Zoos and Aquariums (BIAZA), the European Association of Zoos and Aquaria (EAZA), the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums (WAZA), and the Association of Scottish Visitor Attractions. It has also been granted four stars by the Scottish Tourism Board. The zoo gardens boast one of the most diverse tree collections in the Lothians. |
