Save the zoo's from permanent closure with government funding during lock down!
These zoo's are dependent on money from visitors to keep endangered animals alive, and are quickly running out of it. They need the funds from people through the door in order to pay for the animals food, their vet bills and for the keepers who look after them.
Zoo's are home to many endangered species of animal, bringing them to safe environments. They are protected from poachers, are given the appropriate habitat, and saved from starvation. These zoo's also enable the breeding of these animals, enhancing on population numbers. Not just for the animals, but for humans this provides a broad range of necessities. They provide the enrichment and a hobby needed for mental health. The natural history of our planet. Education, for all ages. Jobs for many
