The Costa Rican government has closed its state zoos.
00:04
Wait the zoo, the Fruit Uber.
00:09
dude, it was in there.
00:10
But anyways, Costa Rica signed a law to ban all
00:15
but a contract kept two zoos open for the last decade.
00:19
Now the country closed the remaining zoos.
00:21
So more than 400 animals are free.
00:27
I'm not advocating for zoos but don't some zoos kind of like
00:29
rehabilitate animals and it's a good.
00:31
But anyways, so the animals include jaguars,
00:34
crocodiles and spider monkeys that are beating into a rescue center.
00:37
Oh, ok. That's good.
00:39
So the caretakers will evaluate whether they can be released into the
00:41
wild or taken to a sanctuary and some of them have been
00:45
in captivity for 30 years.
00:46
This law does not apply to Costa Rica's 18 private zoos which
00:51
remain open. So they closed the public zoos but not the
00:56
private zoos. I mean there's some progress there,
00:59
I guess. But did you know Colombia has a hippo problem
01:01
because of Pablo Escobar's private zoo?
01:03
Well, like they were like doing the,
01:06
yeah, so he illegally imported kangaroos,
01:11
zebras, hippos and more.
01:13
And now Colombia has more than 200 hippos which sometimes attack people
01:18
What the fuck you're walking around.
01:21
They got hungry, hungry hippos in Colombia.
01:24
And it's all because of Pablo not style way.
01:27
They just kind of did whatever they had to do.
01:30
We have more. So El Chapo admits to having a private
01:32
zoo including a train that took guests to see crocodiles and panthers
01:35
So yeah, but it's like you said,
01:36
I always at a train home has theme park,
01:41
I guess. But it's like crazy because again,
01:43
he got the kangaroo zebras hippos like all these animals that need
01:46
I'm sure special attention.
01:47
And hashtag Chapo and speaking of Mexico,
01:56
wealthy people often have exotic animals on their ranchos like lions,
02:00
tigers, bears and police raids have caught nautical with giraffes camels
02:07
and even elephants talk about the elephant in the room.
02:11
Brother. It's seen as a symbol of power.
02:16
I've seen people post their tigers and I'm like,
02:19
yo, that looks bad ass.
02:21
That's why you'd be like,
02:25
However, a lot of these animals are found suffering from malnutrition
02:30
and in poor condition.
02:31
So that's what I'm saying.
02:34
With the private zoos,
02:35
it's like they got to close them.
02:36
I think they got to close them too.
02:38
It's sad. The living conditions.
02:39
It's the flag, but it's like you have a kangaroo in
02:42
your living room and a freaking tiger in your backyard and it's
02:45
like, yeah, just throw him a steak and he's fine
02:48
You know, Costa Rica,
02:50
it's a step in the right direction.
02:52
But I hope they keep,
