Since this issue is from the early 1990s, it is in black-and-white, rather than in today's full-color issues. The content, however, is still relevant.From the introduction: "The word 'zoo' is short of zoological park or garden. Zoology is the study of animals. Living up to their name, modern zoos conduct studies on the conservation of animal species both within their boundaries and around the world. Zoos protect many endangered species, and breeding programs work to enlarge their shrinking populations. Just as Noah was said to have saved many animals from the flood by taking them onto his ark, zoos today consider themselves arks for endangered species."
