    Hello everybody,

    I am doing an assignment on The Role of Modern Zoos and Best Practice Zoo Keepers and I am STRUGGLING

    I need some inspiration and assistance on how to answer this question>>>>>Explain how the zoo industry (globally) considers its involvement in attaining each objective and provide real and current examples (global or local) of zoo mechanisms or projects that support each objective. (11⁄2 pages)<<<<<

    Should this be in General Discussion, because this isn't for zoo related stuff?

    Perhaps you are struggling because the assignment makes no sense.

    This is meaningless without the objectives: you must concentrate on them. One piece of general advice that may be useful, the Durrell Wildlife Trust (Jersey Zoo) is a good starting point to find examples of good practice, but there are many other zoos doing valuable work.
