Maybe one day animatronics will become advanced enough to make zoos obsolete.

Many zoos and aquariums conduct scientific research, and may have breeding programs for endangered species.

If we replace animals at the zoo with robots, then we don't need to worry about endangered species or not anymore!

And I'm sure we can do scientific research on robot animals just as well as normal animals, just a different kind of research.

Seems like it all works out.

it would be neat to have animatronic autonomous velociraptors wandering the streets of my neighborhood halloween night!
