As they come flooding into the grounds, everyone has to be alert. This is not to ensure that the animals do not hurt the people, but to make sure that the people do not hurt the animals. If an animal is asleep, they want to throw stones at it or prod it with sticks to make it move. We have found visitors trying to give the chimpanzees lighted cigarettes and razor blades. The uncivilized behaviour of some human beings in a zoo has to be seen to be believed.<\/p>\n<p>Towards evening the visiting crowd thins out. The slanting rays of the sun light the cage where the crowned pigeons live. As the light fades, the robin ceases to sing and files off to roost in the mimosa tree. The wall faced owls that have spent all day pretending to be grey tree stumps, now open large golden eyes. Shadows are creeping over the flower beds and rockery.

It is manufactured in a big way in a factory. The production is done in the following way. At first, iron-ore is collected from mines. Next, it is mixed with coke and lime. The mixture is then taken to the blast furnace. There it is heated at a very high temperature. Thus, it is melted and pig iron is produced: At the next stage, the pig iron is purified by adding carbon to it and melting it.
