WTF are you talking about?
Have you ever been to a zoo? They're hugely valuable for educational, cultural and recreational purposes and as a means to preserve species that have been devastated by human-encroachment.

You're wrong.
> Why this major-city zoo did not have at very least security cams...
That was an oversight. Certainly there was some negligence on the part of zoo officials and inspectors.

That would be a terrible tragedy. Do you think the animals would just go on their merry ways without the zoo to protect them? You'd be killing most of those animals, burdening other zoos and preserves and punishing the community.
