advertisements caused me some irritation, so patently did it distort reality.
Headlined "Without zoos you might as well tell these animals to get stuffed", it
was bordered with illustrations of several endangered species and went on to
extol the myth that without zoos like London Zoo these animals "will almost
certainly disappear forever". With the zoo world’s rather mediocre record on
conservation, one might be forgiven for being slightly skeptical about such an

Eight years later, a series of world conferences took place, entitled "The Breeding of Endangered A. (A) London Zoo’s advertisements are dishonest. B. (B) Zoos made an insignificant contribution to conservation up until 30 years ago. C. (C) No one knew how the animals were being treated at Robin Hill Adventure Park. D. (D) The number of successful zoo conservation programmes is unsatisfactory. 我来回答: 提交
