You are judging all zoos by the worst of them. Go look at a good zoo. None let tigers live so naturally as to kill thier own dinner (cage fighting is evil) but the animals are certainly not bored.

Link to a "good zoo" with a lion enclosure. I'm legitimately interested because I've been to zoos that pat themselves on the back for being larger than average and it is still completely inadequate.

Can you explain what an adequate size is and how you would know that? I learned that in the wild a territory can be 20 square kilometres, which I guess is an upper bound.
