If you see Justin Bieber in Boston, don’t ask him for a photo

It makes him feel like a "zoo animal."

Justin Bieber is “done taking pictures” with fans.

The singer, who’s in town for two shows at the TD Garden for his Purpose World Tour, posted a message to his Instagram Tuesday night saying the constant attention makes him “feel like a zoo animal” and he wants to be able to “keep his sanity.”

The note comes only a day after the “Sorry” singer was spotted strolling barefoot through Boston Common and the Public Garden. Many fans who bumped into Bieber during his walk posted pictures and videos, and one fan even tried to hug the singer.

This isn’t the first time Bieber has used Instagram to send a message to his fans asking them to give him space. He canceled his fan meet-and-greets last month, writing, “I want to make people smile and happy but not at my own expense.”

Unfortunately for the Biebs, he may be outnumbered.
