Thoughts about Zoo
I went to a Zoo this week.
I've been there during 2 hours and I saw hundreds of people who came to the zoo. Most of them were parents with children of different ages, and most of them were completely not interested in this place and didn't pay attention to the animals, which they visited.
Some children, especially who is very little age, didn't pay attention at all, other children were running around and knocking to cages in an attempt to wake up sleeping animals.
I don't want to say that it's bad, I think it's normal behaviour for young children (however, visiting with a six-month old child isn't ok). But I'd like to say that zoo can make absolutely different feels in more adult age.
Now, when I approach a cage I can look into the animal's eyes and imagine the time, when that creatures were the most advanced form of life and the world was completely different. I can see how life was changed by evolution over billions of years.
So, I'd like to say that zoo is not only a place for walking with children, but also a place where adults can immerse yourself in thoughts.
