　　Last Sunday the elephant keeper at London Zoo, Jim Robson, was killed by one of the elephants he loved. This was terrible, and it could be a big problem for the future of London Zooand maybe for all of Britain's city zoos.

　　London Zoo said that it would move its three elephants to a wild animal park outside London. Its director-general, Michael Dixon, said, “We are sorry that the elephants are leaving. There have been elephants at London Zoo since 1831.”

　　One British newspaper said that though many small animals were very interesting, most people wanted to see big animalsand most of all elephants.

　　London Zoo is not only losing its elephants. The tigers will also leave soon and most of the bears have already gone. Outside the elephant house at London Zoo, a woman called Mary said she hoped the zoo could keep big animals. “This is the only way the young people can see animals without travelling to other countries,” she said.

　　Zoos are not very good places for animals, but they can help to keep them well. Children can also learn a lot about the animals when they visit zoos.

　　Another visitor, a man called Alan, was very angry. “If we send them back to the wild they will die. If you take away big animals, people will stop visiting London Zoo. it can survive (继续生存) at the moment, but it won't survive in the future.”

　　However, Mary Rosevear, director of the Federation (联合会) of Zoos, believes that city zoos can survive without keeping large animals.
