Unfortunately here in Mexico the sad reality is that the majority of animals are kept in appalling conditions ( except for the 3 major zoos in the capital)
But it is important to remember that Mexico is a developing country which is in need of much humane treatment towards both humans and animals,and thus cant be compared to the fantastic zoological gardens in the United kingdom or the average ones in the United states. Bio parque estrella is an example of a bad zoo in Mexico ,100% commercial with no effort of captive breeding programes and conservation is non existant. I am in agreement with what the late john aspinall said when a keeper was mauled to death at his zoo, that yes BLa BLa its a sad loss of human life but let's just compare for one minute the destruction we unleash on species such as the tiger.
