Stop abuse in zoos, says ENDCAP

Nov 12 - Animal welfare groups are calling on the EU to bring in new legislation to protect animals from cruelty in zoos.

ENDCAP is a pan-European coalition of Non Governmental Organisations who are seeking better conditions for animals in captivity.

The group have taken their five point plan to the European Parliament, to encourage MEP's to pass their message on to their countries.

The groups ultimate goal is to abolish zoos and free animals from captivity.
