RIPLooks pleasantly relaxed to me.I am not unequivocally for zoos, but with habitat destruction, climate change, other environmental pressures, and poaching, they are important for helping to preserve threatened and endangered species.Here is an interesting site:IUCN - Threatened Species Red List

He used them to display his incredible skill in pantomime, satire, mimicry, dialect and sketch comedy.
