Philadelphia Zoo Open House - Snow Leopard in Big Cat Falls

[animalsdeserveaplace]

You can't say an animal is sad by looking at this. The video doesn't show the whole facility it's in; there's no way to then know if the condition of the space is bad or not. You can't see the whole thing in the video. Therefore, you can fairly also say that the animal has a nice facility.

Please also see my video "Philadelphia Zoo Black Jaguar - Open House" which I recorded the following weekend.

Also, in addition to enrichment activities, when Big Cat Falls animals are waiting for their turn to go outside, they also participate in training sessions which make it easier for Zoo veterinary staff to examine the animals and vaccinate them, etc.

And thank God you don't actually smell a real animal - thanks for pointing out the artificiality of the "behind the scenes" tour - I'm sure it's as antiseptic as a hospital.

Thanks for pointing out that you have not been on a "behind-the-scenes" tour ...

And that your blatant hatred of zoos is not based on observation of animals in zoos ..

And that you prefer to see only the negative - even when it doesn't exist ...

Later today, I will be uploading another "behind the scenes" video showing another very contented animal being kept busy with enrichment activities while waiting for its turn to go outside.

rowanmorrison your wrong what your saying. The leopard probably can go outside anytime he wants. It gets feed food and drinks water by the keepers. Do you know some animals have better lives in zoos then in the wild.

Thank you. They let the cats circulate all the different yards and then return them to there home one.

[rowanmorrison]

His "turn" to go outside? Is that like "time in the yard" for prisoners?

[ZooVisitorMM]

No.
