About Edward Albee's Zoo Story How does the play suggest that animalistic violence lies under a thin coverage of civilization in modern society?

â??The Zoo Storyâ?? by Edward Albee is about a bizarre meeting. One day, Peter is accosted by a man who continues asking him personal questions. Eventually he answers, then finds when it is the other manâ??s turn to share, he relates something thatâ??s not the type of thing a stranger would relate. The encounter grows stranger by the minute and finally a knife is drawn and tragedy happens. The story shows that through our lives, no matter how civilized we are, the animal nature of man is always near.

How can you steal a monkey from the zoo?

It is virtually impossible to steal animals of any kind from a zoo. It is best not to try, but if you must, you could dress up in a monkey suit and try to get the monkey to come to you. The only problem you would have is figuring out how to get the monkey out of the cage.

If animals are in zoos how come there are still extinct animals?

Do zoos make animals suffer from psychological distress?

When you consider the fact that all animals in the zoo, or nearly all, are species that normally only exist in the wild, it doesn't take a genius to figure out that living in a cage is not a normal or natural state to them. Some animals seem to adjust to zoo life, and some never do. I enjoy visiting the zoo, as I get to see many animals that I would otherwise never encounter. But it saddens me a little that they're cooped up in cages and not living the way they were meant to. On the other hand, life in the wild is a dog eat dog sort of existence, and zoo animals often outlive there wild counterparts due to vet care, better diet, and being protected from predators. Some animals would be extinct if there weren't a few in zoos around the world. So, to answer the question, I would hazard a guess that yes, it does cause them stress, for some animals to some degree.

Additional Information;

Zoos not so long ago, yes! Not in Britain, Australia, and most modern developed countries nowadays. As most zoos now are more orientated towards endangered animals, and/or threatened species, and in fact, help that situation. Even take in unwanted exotic animals, etc.

I'm sorry to say, in some shall we say "backwards" countries, zoos are still a form of entertainment only, and yes the animals in those zoos do more often than not suffer a lot of stress, and unhappiness and a terrible quality of life and treatment. Another View: Just my personal opinion and by reading allot about it, I think no matter the situation all confined animals suffer stress to some extent. You take them from their natural habitat and "try" to create one for them. Yes, I'm sure it is stressful. Wild animals are used to having miles upon miles of land to roam. Then you capture one, and put it into a confined space that lets say, at best may be a mile in diameter, its still not what nature had intended for that animal. So I say yes, even if in some cases it is trying to help the animal, I do believe it still creates stress. And in zoos, they have to be handled to some degree, and they have to be fed by man, and ultimately cared for by man. Where normally the two would never come together, yes its stressful. It is an unnatural setting all together.

Why did they make zoos?

Zoos were built since Roman times, when travel was hard and dangerous. Most people would never have had a chance to see real live animals that did not live in their part of the world.Right up to the 20th century, travel to exotic places was still quite time-consuming and somewhat dangerous. Today , even with air travel making seeing exotic animals easier, most of us cannot afford to spend thousands of dollars for a trip to Africa or South America or Alaska.

In the beginning, zoos were more like animal jail. Now Zoos are more concerned with "habitat areas" which are not only better for the animals, but for us to see them in a more natural setting so they display more genuine behaviors.

Our National Zoo in Washington D.C. is nice. Busch Gardens in Florida is wonderful. And I love the San Diego Zoo. They have huge habitat ares for their Gorillas and you can watch them run and climb and interact in family groups.

About how many animals are in the National Zoo?

According to the National Zoo, a part of the Smithsonian Institute, about 2,000 animals from about 400 different species are currently housed there. Additional Info: They have this new thing, or to me new, Animals cams! Where during visting hours you can watch the animals from live cameras in their living areas. This Zoo happened to have ones that looked really interesting and lots to choose from. Many of the Zoos have them, but often they are only with a few of the animals. The Zoo has done alot of updating their site and park trying to compete with some of the larger Zoos. From what I could find out this Zoo also claims to be the oldest "formal" Zoo in the US. The Zoo was created by an Act of Congress (really), but that was in 1889, and I think that was after the Philadephia Zoo.

What is the relevance of zoo geographical region in relation to taxonomy?

The location of a zoo that an animal is kept in will have nothing at all to do with its taxonomy. Taxonomy is the technical word for its classification, and that stays the same no matter where the animal is moved to or from. Sometimes classification will have to do with its location, but the animal's species does not change because it has been moved.
