Tell The Toronto Zoo to Stop Killing It's Elephants!
- Target: The Toronot Zoo
- Sponsored by: Improperganda and care2 members
The Toronto Zoo lacks the space and natural conditions necessary for elephants to live healthier and longer lives. Cold weather compounds the problem, as elephants are forced indoors into tiny cages for the majority of long, freezing winters, greatly restricting movement necessary to good health. IDA stressed that even if the zoo authorities splurge on animal care and space renovations, the poor conditions and the cold temperature force elephants to stay indoors in tiny spaces. IDA recommended for the Toronto Zoo to permanently shutter its elephant display.
IDA's 2009 Ten Worst Zoos for Elephants List:
San Antonio Zoo (Texas)
Toronto Zoo (Canada)
Honolulu Zoo (Hawaii)
Reid Park Zoo (Arizona)
Houston Zoo (Texas)
Topeka Zoo (Kansas)
Oregon Zoo
Bronx Zoo (New York)
Toledo Zoo (Ohio)
Brookfield Zoo (Illinois)
Please urge The Toronto Zoo to close down it's elephant display untill they make the much needed changes to it.
We the undersigned urge you to close down your Elephant display at your zoo. The Toronto zoo cannot properly house Elephants without them dying. This exhibit MUST be shut down before more of these beautiful creatures die. There is no need to make the elephants suffer for the Toronto Zoo's gain.
Elephants should be living untill 70, the elephants in your care are dying very prematurely at ages between 38-41. If your zoo care's about your elephants, you would close down the display and make it more suitable to these creatures.
We will keep protesting your Zoo untill you become more animal friendly.
