This week I have been felled by some foul bacteria or virus which has played merry hell with by gastro-intestinal tract with cold, unfeeling efficiency. To take my mind off it I thought I would process a few photos from Tokyo.
This includes a few from the depressing Ueno Zoo which is a case study in how not to run a zoo and the people in charge should be ashamed of themselves. If it’s a question of funding then some of the animals should be sent elsewhere or when they pass not be replaced. The worst part of it was probably the petting zoo where sheep and goats were chained to a fence where kids are encouraged (or not stopped anyway) to maul the animals. I was glad to be out of there.
