Costa Rica is officially the first country to close all zoos! Unfortunately, due to contractual issues, two zoos will stay open until the end of their contract, a decade. However, after that they will not obtain another contract and will close. Costa Rica is known to have a very diverse animal kingdom, it is home to 4% of the world's known species.
The animals that cannot be released to the wild will have a cage-free, large environment to flourish in. This is great news for animal lovers everywhere and hopefully the start to a world-wide trend.
Good job Costa Rica!
