  • Performing Animals in Chinese Zoos August 2010
    Performing Animals in Chinese Zoos August 2010 Compiled by David Neale, Animal Welfare Director Lisa Yang, Animal Welfare Officer 1. Methodology From September 2009 to August 2010, Animals Asia investigators visited 13 safari parks and zoos across China to document wild animal performances. The information and photographs obtained from this investigation are summarised below. Video footage taken during the investigations has been used to produce a short film entitled „The Performance‟ available via the Animals Asia website www.animalsasia.org 2. Executive Summary Wild animal performances are common at captive animal establishments across China. All thirteen establishments visited in 2009/10 put on performances of one kind or another with many drawing in large crowds. Asiatic Black Bears are the most popular performance animal, present at 90% of parks; 75% of parks exhibit performing monkeys; 75% of parks exhibit performing tigers; 50% of parks exhibit performing sea-lion; Five parks put on bird performances; four parks exhibit performing elephants and two parks have a dedicated dolphinarium for marine mammal performances. During the wild animal performances animals are forced through fear, intimidation and in some cases physical force to perform unnatural tricks. 75% of parks force bears to ride bicycles; 50% of parks force bears to perform acrobatics on acrobatic rings; three parks force bears to ride a motorbike over a high wire 30ft above the ground; two parks force bears to „box‟ with each other; one park exhibits a human wrestling with a bear; 75% of parks force monkeys to ride bicycles; 50% force monkeys to perform handstands on the horns of goats, often while the goat is balancing on a tightrope some 10ft above the ground; the most common tiger acts force tigers to walk on their back legs, jump through hoops of fire and walk on top of large balls; Elephants were seen at four parks performing uncomfortable and humiliating tricks such as standing on their heads, and spinning on one leg.

  • Legal Status of Zoos and Zoo Animals.Pdf
    TOWARD A MORE APPROPRIATE JURISPRUDENCE REGARDING THE LEGAL STATUS OF ZOOS AND ZOO ANIMALS By GEORDE DUCKLER* I. INTRODUCTION Zoo animals are currently regarded as objects by the state and federal courts and are perceived as manifesting the legal attributes of amusement parks. The few tort liability cases directly involving zoos tend to view them as markets rather than preserves; the park animals are viewed as dangerous recreational machinery more akin to roller coasters or Ferris wheels than to living creatures.' Courts typically treat zoo keepers and owners as the mechanics and manual laborers responsible for the mainte- nance of these dangerous instrumentalities. 2 Disputes concerning the pos- session, sale and care of exotic animals, as well as'the administration of the habitats in which such animals are housed, have also been treated by the courts in terms of control of materials for public exhibit and entertainment.3 Since zoos do in fact operate primarily as centers of entertainment, it is not surprising that they are characterized as such by the judiciary. Moreover, animals in general have historically been considered the prop- erty of humans, and that courts consider them as such is a topic well ex- plored by authors from many disciplines, including those published in earlier issues of this journal.4 With regard to animals as property, most discussions have focused on one of three specific groups: domesticated animals, animals used in scientific experimentation, or wild animals found on public lands. Zoo animals, on the other hand, occupy a peculiar place in the prop- erty law hierarchy;, a position not as easily or as regularly assessed as * Ph.D.
