Is it responsible to visit zoos? Some argue that animals in zoos suffer physically and mentally by being enclosed. But zoos can also be really important for conservation, and make learning about wildlife more widely accessible.

She explains the ethics behind zoos, and what it’ll take to make animal and wildlife tourism more responsible.   Guest: Stacia Lock Resources: https://stumblesafari.com/wildlife-vs-animal-tourism-whats-the-difference/ https://stumblesafari.com/aza-and-roadside-zoos-whats-the-difference/ https://www.aza.org/find-a-zoo-or-aquarium  https://stumblesafari.com/ethical-animals-and-coasters-why-i-love-busch-gardens/  Want to join Curious Tourism on a group tour to Guatemala?
