Should Dublin Zoo close its doors?

This Saturday, a protest is due to be held outside of Dublin Zoo calling for an independent investigation into concerns about animal welfare.   Dublin Zoo denied any allegation of a breach in animal welfare and an investigation by the National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) last month cleared the zoo of any wrongdoing based on 17 allegations by a whistleblower, dating from 2004 to 2022.  But what about the zoo and its role in society?  Joining Kieran to discuss is Gerry Boland, Animal Advocate and Founder of Animals Behind Closed Doors.
