Costa Rica has long been known for caring for animal rights and now the country is going one step further and setting all captive animals free!

The country’s leaders say that they will be unlocking the cages of all the animals from two of its zoos to set the beasts free. The residents of the Simon Bolivar Zoo and the Santa Ana Conservation Centre will be set free beginning in 2014. Simon Bolivar Zoo will be turned into a botanical garden while Santa Ana Conversation Centre will become a park.

The decision, though it seems like a great thing, is causing all sorts of controversies. Many say that the decision has the right intention since the animals in the zoos are stressed out and unhappy and being in the wild will improve their lives; however, veterinarians say that many of these animals are sick and have lost their ability to survive in the wild.

What do you think should happen to the animals at zoos? Join the discussion on Twitter!
