1. [+1,854, -41] Aigoo... He looks cute but the news still makes me feel sad. It's only instinct for him to want to run around in a large field. The zoo probably felt so stuffy. We really need to work on getting rid of zoos and aquariums.

2. [+1,598, -37] The poor zebra... to have to spend his whole life in a zoo, never once get to experience life in a large pasture... I feel so bad for him... ㅠㅠ

3. [+1,257, -25] Imagine escaping hoping to find other animals... only to see the confusion of all the cars around you

4. [+107, -1] Sounds like he's entered a rebellious phase since his parents died... Such a sad story...

5. [+84, -0] Hearing the interviewee say "The zebra was as fast as a car and pretty with shiny hair" makes me feel sad. He's probably never got to run as fast as this since being born... and while it might've felt scary, it probably also felt so exciting.

6. [+84, -2] Get rid of these zoos... and thank goodness it was just a zebra that got out. Imagine if it was a lion or tiger, oof.

7. [+69, -1] His first and last exploration of the real world... This is why I don't like going to zoos and children's parks anymore ㅠㅠ

8. [+62, -0] Please get rid of these zoos. How do we not understand just how selfish we are being as human beings? Why would you ever want to lock these animals up and give them so much stress just for us to gawk at? Who even started such a barbaric practice ㅠ imagine if the tables were turned.

9. [+60, -0] I feel so bad for him. He probably thought he escaped into freedom but nothing but asphalt surrounded him... Only to get shot with a dart gun in the end and dragged back to what he probably sees as jail ㅜㅜ

10. [+37, -2] It's only natural for him to want to escape.. I hope he was able to run to his heart's content, even if it was for a moment..

11. [+34, -3] Please get rid of zoos ㅠㅠ let these animals run free where they belong, whether that's in the African wilderness...

12. [+29, -2] Something about his story is so cute... he became rebellious after his parents died and got into a fight with a kangaroo

13. [+28, -1] Stuff like this makes me tear up ㅜㅜ what right do we have to capture such an animal and keep him locked up all his life
