Rescue The Bronx Zoo's Elephants And Red Pandas

The Issue

A few years ago, I read that the Bronx Zoo, in Central Park, which is famous for giraffes, zebras, rhinos, flamingos, tigers, sea lions, aardvarks, and tapirs, but they have really bad living corners for two of their Asian species. Their red panda exhibit is too small for their pandas to move around freely, and the elephants are in cramped, cold habitats. This is getting very bad for the elephants' hooves, and zoochosis is getting more common in the elephants and red pandas. All they need to do is sell their red pandas and elephants to a sanctuary or a better zoo, or expand their exhibits, making them more realistic.
