Zoo, by Anthony Browne is a story we studied for English. What is the role of a zoo and what is the relationship between man and animals? Below is my recreation of an orangutan enclosure and a diary entry from the POV of an orangutan entering it for the first time.
I step onto the cold grass already feeling relaxed, gazing over to see how colourful my new home is. Fresh scent goes into my nostrils, clearing my nose, Listening to the wind rustling, I’m already at home comfortably lying under the blooming tree above my head safely, making me the happiest orangutan in here!
