Pre Roskilde Festival

Vacation time. Tudde arrived yesterday morning. It was nice to see her again. Yesterday we went to the zoo in Copenhagen. As always very interesting. I have been there four or five times the past year. I truly hope the well managed zoos have an impact on the awareness of how diverse a wildlife we have and that we need to take care of it. I’m always worried that the animals at zoos are bored. It seems as if they are quite comfortable at the zoo in Copenhagen. For example a new giraf enclosure has been built. It is quite big compared to the old and it is situated next to other African wildlife such as the rhinocerus. I hope they some day move the elephants to the same area.

I suppose the alternative to having a zoo would be to look at a certain Steve on the Discovery Channel or pick up a book on animals. However, these options don’t generate the same impact as seeing a towering giraf right in front of you.
