  • 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.
