The [[Tenth Doctor]] once claimed to be physically repelled by zoos because, as he told [[Martha Jones]], "the thought of anything being caged hurts me". ([[PROSE]]: ''[[The Last Dodo]]'') However, on another occasion, he voluntarily visited a zoo on his own. Although he freed a few of the animals, he did so not on moral grounds, but only because it helped him avoid [[Dalek]]s.

Indeed, it was unclear if other incarnations of the Doctor were particularly bothered by zoos. His [[first Doctor|first self]] was quite happy to help a [[Zookeeper (The Didus Expedition)|zookeeper]] recapture his prize [[didus]]. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Didus Expedition]]'') In [[1960s]] [[New York City]], the [[Second Doctor]] stopped a mad scientist from using reanimated [[dinosaur]]s to liberate zoo animals. ([[COMIC]]: ''[[The Monsters from the Past]]'') The [[Third Doctor]] and [[the Brigadier]] once encountered animals in a [[London]] zoo whose dispositions had been chemically altered by [[Cedric Mathews]]. Their goal, however, was not freeing the animals, but restoring order to the zoo.
