I don't find Zoo animals being treated like toys cute. Not to be a downer I just don't.
Hi. I'm sorry you felt the animals here looked like they were being treated like "toys". As an animal communicator, I'm often wary of "cutesy" animal photos, and I have met a number of zoo animals and discussed their various opinions on zoo life. From what I could tell from most of these photos, they involved animals just being themselves or being given treats or items with a "holiday" theme as enrichment toys. I know my cats and turtles enjoyed their Christmas treats and toys, and I respect them even when I give them things to play with. If I felt these photos were inherently degrading or involved harm to the animals I would not have included them.
