“OUR MISSION IS THE ANIMALS!”
―
―
“In the most notorious case of humans in zoos, a Mbuti man named Ota Benga who was kidnapped from his home in the Congo Basin and sold into slavery was exhibited in the Bronx Zoo's Monkey House in 1906. He was freed after public outcry and moved to Virginia, where he worked in a tobacco factory and hunted alone in the woods. But he struggled with the intense trauma he had endured and in 1916 shot himself in the heart.”
