This grass is so good, man. It made me high.

I like to capture animals, but always visit the local zoos with mixed emotions.
This shot was taken at the Dortmund Zoo.
The zoo shows some examples how they caged up animals, like tigers for example, in tiny cages about 40 years ago.
Those days they thought they did it right, today we say it was cruel.
Wonder what we will say in 40 years about the way we keep them now.



For others, taking part in the september challenge '30 things about you', have a look here:

Love your title!
I haven't visited a zoo in years, not for matters of principal but just haven't got round to it.
This is a lovely shot with great lighting. V

I love to go to zoos because I love animals but then I have mixed feelings because I wish they had their freedom. And yes, I think this giraffe is very "high"!

Sadly it is the only way to save some species, but I have to admit, I don't like seeing them in enclosures at all....a perfect shot that has my vote
