re: Honest question about the Baton Rouge Zoo issue

The main reason I don’t go is the location and the lack of quality exhibits. Exxon gave them money for a tiger exhibit and the rest of the place sucks. No elephants. No real bears. No lions. No gorillas. It’s a petting zoo with tigers and a few giraffes. If it was moved to a better location they would still need to improve the exhibits to make it better. Great cities have great zoos. You can tell a lot about a place by its zoo. Ours is very telling right now.

I don't care if you relocate the San Diego zoo and all of flora and fauna of Africa to BR, this fricking shite hole will never be a "great" city.
And I'm not just hating on this place. The state govt is so fricking corrupt and antiquated that no place in La. has a shot at evolving into a "great" city until we have an absolute cultural shift from the status quo to something better at the state level.
and I don't ever see that happening. So you can build all the epic zoos you want. It won't matter.
