{"product_id":"what-are-zoos-for-heather-browning-9781529231045","title":"What Are Zoos For?","description":"Are zoos an anachronism in the 21st century when we can watch animals from our couches in close-up in their natural habitat without worrying about cruelty? Should they go the way of other bygone era 'spectacles' and 'attractions' that we now regard as barbaric? There are vocal campaigners and activists who believe so. Heather Browning and Walter Veit disagree, but they acknowledge there is a case to be answered. In What are Zoos for? they test the common justifications for zoos (entertainment, education, research, conservation) against the evidence and suggest what the best zoos of the future should look like to ensure that they are primarily for animals and not just for people.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Heather Browning, Walter Veit\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1529231043\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781529231045\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bristol University Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/26\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 160\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback","brand":"Heather Browning","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45897763881215,"sku":"9781529231045","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_b2d7c125-e322-4f7c-ac03-0fd829904968.jpg?v=1721374686","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/what-are-zoos-for-heather-browning-9781529231045","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
