しろくまゴーゴ君 天王寺動物園 Polar Bear Tennoji Zoo Osaka Japan

[daspoooop]

You brought up koala and kangaroo culling for population control, so i could bring up the slaughter of whales for burgers, however they aren't relative to holding animals captive. Please point out where I am confused, to me the evidence is in the video.

[daspoooop]

You got me thinking too, perhaps it would be wrong to close the zoo because of the good work being done in keeping dieing species alive. If it is the best they can do then they can't do anymore. It still doesn't it make it right. Perhaps the government through its people should invest greater resources to make the zoo more accommodating. Wouldn't you rather see them playing happily and naturally rather than being mentally incapacitated, possibly for life?

[daspoooop]

i looked up the koala's and it seems they are overpopulated or running out of habitat. i believe dieing free is better than being held captive in squalid conditions. i would rather less development and more koala habitat but such is the way of "progress". If the zoo is short on money and doing the best it can then i apologise, i'm sure they are very dedicated to their animals. i just felt to say nothing would be wrong, surely there must be a better way to hold them.

[daspoooop]

This zoo should be closed, all the animals i've seen on here pace back and forth obviously in distress. This bear does not look comfortable and definitely not happy. Should be ashamed.

[panacealand]

This zoo was built in 1915.

It is an experienced zoo with the history.

A lot of animals (about 1000 animals) are alive very very long in this zoo. It has successfully Polar Bear's breeding.

You should secure places to live of all animals here because you say that this zoo should be closed.

It is extremely difficult.

So, your comment is irresponsible.

[daspoooop]

1915 huh? Doesn't surprise me, looks old and decrepit. Irresponsible? Wake up, an animal in that state wouldn't want to breed. It is clearly just for entertainment purposes. Most zoo's breed animals, but they don't use it for an excuse to torture them. Don't try to cover your shame with lies. I'm not stupid.

[panacealand]

After this zoo closed, where should animals go?

When they were released into the wild, most of them will be killed by humans or die (hunger death) within a few weeks.

Many of them doesn't know how to get food.

Zoo is also animal shelter. This zoo takes admission to serve their food expenses (about 5$).

This white bear seems cross this day, because there is no water, and it can't be swum, water is usually filled, so he's good-humored except this day.

[panacealand]

This zoo is municipal ownership and is managed only by tax money and the entrance fee. It's never managed for moneymaking.

torture? Did you see actually at this zoo? I love animals and went to this zoo many times, there is no such fact.

You should not judge by only one side of videos.

The greatest unhappiness for all animals is absence of foods and places where they live.

[daspoooop]

Look up Dubbo zoo in Aus. All the animals in that zoo appear to be comfortable, relaxed and go about their normal routine. This polar bear is being subjected to torture. It is clearly not happy and very much in distress, look it up. So now you are saying that at least its being fed so that it should be happy because there is no food for it naturally and again i say its no reason to torture it, your ignorance is disgusting, you disgust me. Shame on you.

[panacealand]

Thanks!

I have been to Australian many zoos.

Those zoos were very good.

But... The country which abuses kangaroos and koalas as destructive animals recently. Oh, look who's talking!

There are also several ideal zoos like Dubbo zoo in Japan.

For example "Adventure World" in Shirahama. When it's compared with such zoo, Tennoji zoo isn't ideal. But it is wrong to tell to close.

[daspoooop]

i disagree with the culling of kangaroo's. it is due to overpopulation. i was for the relocation. killing koala's? i am unaware if it is true however i very much doubt it. their population is in decline. it is one thing to cull animals to bring their population to sustainable levels and it is a completely different thing to parade animals in disgusting exhibits for the entertainment of people. I have seen your other video with the tiger and it is in pretty much the same state as the polar bear.

[panacealand]

Tennoji Zoo designed the animals's habitats as natural as the wild. "African Savannah Zone" is the most popular site in the zoo. There are lions, hippopotamuses, rynocerous, giraffes, chimpanzee, zebra, hyena, elephants, penguins ....

[daspoooop]

Your point?

[panacealand]

Please search by "african savanna zone tennoji zoo".

This zoo is trying to make comfortable environment for animals. It's not ideal yet. But, you said that "should be closed". It's wrong.

[daspoooop]

If you fail to see the negative impacts on the animals in treating them in such a way, torture by confined captivity, then i don't have much hope for any other exhibits. you have to agree this is not right, period. wouldn't you rather die than be held captive in such a way? if the other exhibits are better than i apologise for the blanket statement. i was just surprised japan is allowed to hold animals captive in such a way in this day and age.

[panacealand]

I understood what you means.

Something you said got me thinking.

Thanks!!

[panacealand]

However, you are confused by false information.

I do not tell you a lie.

[animenerd200]

[Mustaldo]

wow

fucking sad ... :c

[cloned2]

look at all that snow.... its so real

[ryansuen]

that water is sooo dirty...

[panacealand]

Dirty water is draining to change into clean water.

[Laharal55]

It semmed to be summer in this video.. do you know if the zoo is paying attention to temperature control? Also, how the deep is the water? I know that the bear would need to dive in order to regulate his body temperature if it is hot outside...Poor dude

P.S. Saw the little dive at the end of the vid ;)

[tirdadbet]

Japan can stop by hunting whales for commercial purposes

[GERMANETCHEVERRY]

Such fantastic animals. It's a shame their natural habitat is melting.

[panacealand]

Hello,

I think so, too.

I worry that arctic ice melts.

I want to rescue them. But it's a shame I can do nothing.

Thanks for the comment. (^-^)

[orientalilac]

This Osaka Zoo is amazing! Many animals.I think bear was very hungry.But decided where to jump! ^_^ Thank you..great to watch.

[panacealand]

Thanks. (^-^)

The time was around 3 o'clock p.m., so he'll wait for dinner impatiently. There is no water more than usual on the day. So, bear hesitates to plunge into water.
