Dear Editor,
I was shocked and horrified to see the increased prices to visit Hope Zoo. What can possibly justify this? Where is the reasoning? This seems to be a case of cruelty to humans.
Certainly, I, a die-hard animal lover from birth, will now have to be content with visiting the Hope Zoo about once every six months to a year. And the other day I actually wrote about the Hope Zoo and possible price increases for visitors, thinking that $500.00 was a bit steep, but still manageable for some of us. So much for that! Can't imagine how distant the Hope Zoo dream now will be for most of our population. Such a pity.
I am sure Lucas the Lion, when he lets out his magnificent, yet embarrassing belch every afternoon after his expensive daily meal, will also be glad that: 'Oh, the relief! No-one is here to hear me.
