《人類動物園》(The Human Zoo)是英國動物學家德斯蒙德·莫利斯繼《裸猿》之後,於1969年發表的著作。他這兩本著作都是審視人類的生物性如何塑造當代世界文化的特性。 《人類動物園》審視文明社會-尤其城市-的本質。莫利斯將一個城市的人類居民和一個動物園的動物居民作比較:兩者皆得到其生存所需,但代價是要居住在一個非自然的環境。城市中的人類與及動物園中的動物同樣得到食物、居所及頗多的休閒時間,但兩者都要住在一個非自然的環境、在發展健康的社會關係上似乎都出現困難、兩者都需忍受寂寞和無聊、都是要生活在有限的空間裡。這本書說明城市和動物園居民如何創造出處理這些問題的方法,以及他們未能處理這些問題時的後果。 從這個角度來看,莫利斯審視了為什麼文明社會會是這樣子的。他解釋了文明社會中最好的和最差的特點,他審視了文明社會的偉大成就、自然科學和人民科學上的崇高探索,也審視了這同一社會中如戰爭、奴隸、強姦等等的可怕行為。這本著作和他較早之前的《裸猿》都是早期社會生物學領域中的作品。

The Human Zoo is a book written by the British zoologist Desmond Morris, published in 1969. It is a follow-up to his earlier book The Naked Ape; both books examine how the biological nature of the human species has shaped the character of the cultures of the contemporary world. The Human Zoo examines the nature of civilized society, especially in the cities. Morris compares the human inhabitants of a city to the animal inhabitants of a zoo, which have their survival needs provided for, but at the cost of living in an unnatural environment. Humans in their cities, and animals in their zoos, both have food and shelter provided for them, and have considerable free time on their hands. But they have to live in an unnatural environment, and are both likely to have problems in developing healthy social relationships, both are liable to suffer from isolation and boredom, and both live in a limited amount of physical space. The book explains how the inhabitants of cities and zoos have invented ways to deal with these problems, and the consequences that follow when they fail at dealing with them. From this point of view, Morris examines why civilized society is the way it is. He offers explanations of the best and the worst features of civilized society. He examines the magnificent achievements of civilized society, the sublime explorations that make up science and the humanities, as well as the horrible behaviors of this same society such as war, slavery, and rape. This book, and Morris's earlier book The Naked Ape, are two of the early works in the field of sociobiology, which have both contributed much to contemporary understandings of society. The Unabomber, Ted Kaczynski, was heavily influenced by The Human Zoo. Kaczynski’s concept of “surrogate activities” comes from Morris’s concept of “survival-substitute activities,” while Kaczynski's concept of “the power process” is based on Morris’s concept of “the Stimulus Struggle”, though he disagreed with Morris on the exact cause for social ills that result from living in such a "zoo".
