Another great find, Catherine! How do you find all these articles?
This news from Argentina will, I hope, be noted and copied elsewhere. I suspect that the moving force behind this game-changing move is the mayor of the city, who said (from your article):
"This situation of captivity is degrading for the animals, it's not the way to take care of them," Buenos Aires mayor Horacio Rodríguez Larreta said at a press conference, adding: "What we have to value is the animals. The way they live here is definitely not the way to do that."
According to Wikipedia, he is "Head of Government of the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires". That authority may have made it easier for him to push this through.
