I was having a think this morning about wild places. I don't go on holidays other than occasionally with my grandkids and kids, for Christmas get togethers. These days [ covid style ] everyone heads for the home of one of my children and we all spend a few days together.
When I did travel it was for work. I lived in Borneo for two years and China for over three. I don't believe I ever encountered a 'wild place'. Even Batu Bua on the Muara Laung had MTV.
Seems wild places are very few and far between. That got me thinking. Question I came up with was 'When does a wild place become a safari park, and when does a safari park become a zoo? I gave up with Antarctica because my brain was beginning get cramp.
I appreciate that zoos and safari parks can do a lot of good. Jakarta zoo seemed ok. However there are zoos that are bad.
Are there safari parks that are bad?
