Animals are miserable & not looked after

“Animals are miserable and not looked after ”

I visited this zoo on a work holiday as I support people with disabilities.
Walking around this unkept zoo made me wanted to cry.
The animals are bored and have no stimulation. It’s like a prison and is so depressing.
I’m shocked that this is allowed to stay open and the animals are being treated this way.
The sea lions in particular have the smallest enclosure for such an active and large species. They are made to perform unnatural tricks for their dinner which the audience is told is for their benefit.
If this zoo meets ‘regulations’ then the regulations need to be reviewed and we need to do better for them.
I will not be going back and will look into making further complaints as I can’t sit back and do nothing for these poor animals who deserve better.
