I went last year. The signs were scratched and faded. The interactive things were broken and/or dated. There was trash and weeds all through the main walkway.
Meanwhile, no knuckleheads are gonna be knuckleheads but at the very least try to distract them instead of thinking security is gonna change the behavior.
Make the zoo 2015 friendly. Which doesn't mean dial into this phone number to hear more about this.
Use augmented reality for phones, have an indoor zone that makes music out of animal sounds, show more information about their origins, talk about the preservation techniques, mention which animals WERE native to the region. There's a lot of things that could be done to update the experience.
Personally I'm fine. I enjoyed the boring zoo for being a boring zoo. But I'm also not of the culture that needs to instagram every morsel of food I plan to put in my mouth.
