Sad Lion in the Bangladesh Zoo

I was warned many times before I went to the Bangladesh Zoo that it was not much to see and nothing special. I was also told the animals were not well taken care of and that they were perhaps underfed.

I didn’t expect to see some of the saddest animals in the world. They had sad eyes. This Lion was moaning and crying. A deep roaring cry out for help. His partner in the cage was also crying out as he did.

This Zoo needs some serious work and some serious reconsideration. It is not up to standard and it’s not good enough. It sets a bad example for any person who comes to view the zoo and for young people to see animals treated in this way.

Bangladesh is doing so well in so many ways, having a place like this is really letting them down.

Thinking of you Sad Lion 😦
