This collection of thoughtful essays on the role of zoos was compiled by the founders of Zoo Check , an organization devoted to preventing abuse of captive animals and promoting conservation of wild animals in their native habitats. Contributors including Richard Adams, author of Watership Down (1974), actress Virginia McKenna, and wildlife photographer Hugo van Lawick express their views cogently, clearly, and without the sensationalism which often mars publications dealing with animal abuse. This important book is provocative, especially for those who are generally zoo advocates. Recommended for general collections and those dealing with animals.
