Zoos or animal prisons?
Yulia Khori / Khmer Times

There is no secret that I hate zoos. Seeing wild birds and animals, born to be free, locked in cages is not only depressing – it is incredibly cruel. Yet, I also realise that in our day and age, where according to recent reports, humanity was able to wipe out 40 percent of animals off the face of the earth in the last 40 years, zoos can provide the last prospect of hope for the animal species to survive.

But there is no comparison between a Singapore or San Diego Zoo – where animal enclosures are vast and the animals are provided proper dietary nutrition and environmental stimulation. On the contrary, what they call zoos here are actually animal prisons.

In my opinion and the opinion of most international wildlife organisations, conditions of the private zoos in Cambodia are even worse than the conditions of circuses in Europe and Canada in the late 1800s – which are now completely outlawed and officially shut down.

Kampot Zoo, dubbed the “Zoo of Horrors” by the Cambodian English media in 2011, has always had a rather dark reputation. The one time that I visited it left me with haunting images of starving, dirty, sick animals, a paralyzed orangutan, which died in suffering months later, two skinny elephants wandering around their bare enclosure with green rotten water and a cancer-ridden camel, whose ear infection went untreated for so long that the vet, provided by Wildlife Alliance to assess the animal, gave it a very grave prognosis...

That's disgusting. After so many years AND the owner is willing to sell them. Wait, if he loves them so much and the law states he can't sell them, why doesn't he donate them?
