Someone has been asking me: How much agency do zoo animals have? The answer is very little. Feeding usually takes place at certain times to entertain the visitors, secondly none of the animals can decide if she/he wants to go on exhibit. There is no choice of yes or no to escape the piercing eyes and often all day noisy demeanor of the public. A right of privacy for an animal is not yet a discussion we humans are willing to have.
