This week's Picture News-What do animals need to be happy and healthy in zoos?

Zoos, aquariums and safari parks in Great Britain will soon have to follow new rules to help them take better care of animals. These rules say that animals must have bigger and better spaces to live in. The changes will help many different animals including elephants, stingrays, snowy owls and octopuses. Elephants, in particular, will be given much more room to move around and explore.

Things to talk about at home...
*Have you ever visited a zoo? Talk to someone at home about their experience.
*If you could design the perfect zoo, what would you include to keep the animals happy and healthy?
*Do you think zoos help people care more about animals and nature? Why?
