SRao: THE ZOO SUCKS! - From: Dubai Zoo
I agree with you on the biting thing mate. I once saw a Gorilla in Al Ain zoo that still haunts me. It was the saddest creature I have ever seen. The recent PR article from the Zoo says that all the animals have been confiscated and rescued from local population and that why the lack of space!!!! Here is an idea, why not raise some money to send them back to their natural habitat. Instead ask TNT or FEDEX, they would gladly deliver them to whichever country they want for a bit of CSR. Rescued animals. Pah!

THE ZOO SUCKS!! - From: Dubai Zoo
I visited the zoo as a kid in the mid 90's and every animal in that place had gone crazy...pacing back and forth in the cage or sitting in a slump and staring into space....there was a sloth bear in particular whose face I cannot get out of my head (15 years later!!!)..dubai has all the money in the world for a mall every 10miles but they don't believe in controlling the stray population humanely or investing in a proper sanctuary.....i can only hope that the bad karma associated with these inhumane acts comes back to bite somebody in the nether-regions.....

Quite a lot!! - From: Liwa! Liwa! Liwa!
Abu Dhabi is the capital of UAE, the closest city to the Empty Quarter. Liwa is an oasis in the middle of Empty Quarter. It is where the Rulers of UAE originate so it has ben carefully restored to its former glory as a bedouin strong hold. Look it up on net, you will find the story quite fascinating.

Disgusting Dubai Zoo - From: Dubai Zoo
I totally agree with you Sarah but it's a sad reality to live with. This is a city where when people throw kittens and pups out of their cars to watch it get crushed for amusements sake. Tie their pets to lamp posts in deserted areas to die once they lose their cuteness factor. Have their own zoos for novelty with no knowledge of the animals. Ofcourse people get kick out of abused animals, that's why Dubai zoo is here for 30 odd years and counting. I am glad there are cages to protect the animals from the visitors and not the other way around!!

Disgusting Dubai Zoo - From: Dubai Zoo
I cannot believe the disgrace of which is Dubai Zoo, it makes me sick to my stomach how the animals are being treated. In the Scortching heat with no water and a concrete slab as a cage, this is no life for any animal. I am completly appauled, i thought Dubai was 'supposed' to be the up and coming extravagent of the UAE, but yet i am disgusted that the way the Country has sat back and enjoyed the ZOO. The animals should not be there and the Zoo should be closed down. Not only the conditions of the zoo are shocking so are the staff, granted they have to earn a living, but this is no way! it is cruelty to animals! The poor faces of the Huge sad geurilla's trapped in a thick small metal cage!! and the stench of the zoo is unbearable. Do not go here unless you get a kick out of abused animals.
