Animals In Captivity Analysis

According to the passage “The Impact of Animal Protection” it says “In the wild, animals share territory with other species, and the idea of survival of the fittest is very apparent.” it also mentions that the innate instincts they have to survive can be hurt and sometimes gone if they are kept in captivity for too long. The animals are more likely to be hurt by predators because they forget the their natural ways from when they were wild and untouched by the human kind. Others may say that it’s great for many of the to be in the animals to be in zoos mainly for the entertainment to them when they go to see the animals. However I still feel that it is not necessary for them to be locked away in the captivity of zoos for human needs they have their own needs to you

Some of the people in the world believe that the zoological gardens are sanctuaries for birds and animals. Though zoos offer relaxation, enjoyment and excitement for the visitors they become a prison for those wild animals and birds that are confined within the cages. Even though zoological gardens offer protection and safeguard for the wild animals they can be described as ‘collections’ of beautiful birds and animals than as harmonious abodes. Those confined animals are separated from their natural environment, and therefore they are deprived from doing most of the spontaneous

The topic of the treatment of captive animals in both zoos and aquariums is one of high controversy. It is argued that the capturing and breeding of wildlife, holding them in captivity may present them with unnecessary risks. This however is dependent on the species of animal.

The world stripped of human intervention was created by God to be a magnificent place, which glorified God. We, as beings made in the image of God, were given dominion over the earth. However, where does our rule become unjust? Where do we overstep our boundaries? Throughout history, humans have strived to gain ultimate control of a planet they did not create. Some aspects in nature should be left to its own devices to be beautiful and glorify God, their intended purpose of creation. Humans have no right to captivate orcas because we cannot provide for their needs and we force them into a world they did not want. We force orcas into tanks not nearly large enough, we force them to mix with orcas not from their social pods, and we force them to perform for our entertainment.

She claims that while zoos are not necessary for education, the “educative message delivered by zoos is, at best, distorted and, at worst, damaging to the cause that the zoos purport to champion—that is; the conservation of species.” Because she does not consider the educational opportunities and programs that zoos and zoological parks can offer, so her opinion on these establishments is unfavorable. However, by offering a wide variety of programs and opportunities, zoos create a unique experience for their visitors. If the animals are under proper care, there is no reason for society to believe that zoos are “cruel and

Do you think that animals should be kept in captivity there whole life's. When people put animals in zoos or captivity that keeps the animal safe. Although keeping animals in captivity is bad because they don’t get to be themselves, they should keep animals in zoos or captivity because it helps them not go extinct, it brings happiness to families that go the zoo, and zoos bring in enough money to build better animal enclosures.

Zoos are internment camps for animals, and it should be shut down because of all the mistreatment and bad effects it has caused on animals. These bad effects and mistreatment can be summarized to three major points, which are:

The zoo is packed with children, running everywhere. They laugh and smile as they watch the animals at the zoo sleep. What these children do not realize is that these animals are dying on the inside. Animals that live at the zoo are extremely depressed. These animals can suffer severe psychological disorders from being out of their natural environment. But others argue that keeping these animals in captivity will help keep endangered species alive. However, the disadvantages of keeping animals in captivity are becoming more and more serious, and more people are beginning to believe that animals should not be held captive. Animals should not be kept in captivity because of the negative impact it can have

The opposing view use the idea of education and modern day technology (to enhance habitats) to acknowledge that the captivation of animals does not inflict any harm. This can be seen in various instances in “Zoos Connect Us to the Natural World”, but clearly seen, when Hutchens’ expresses, “Zoos provide exhilarating experiences that can’t be replicated on two-dimensional television or computer scenes…[seeing] live animals is a powerful experience” The author goes on to explain the significance of scientific studying as well as using technology to fix the infrastructure of habitats by saying, “In fact, recent advances in exhibit design, animal nutrition, genetic management, and veterinary medicine have revolutionized animal welfare and care in our zoos.” While the arguments Hutchens does attempt to bolster the opposing point of view, what he is failing to mention is the fact that animals will not adapt to the habitat emotionally despite the technological advances because of the “actual” wildlife they have lived in. He is only attempting to describe the point of view of human beings and not providing any statistics to support that animals can adapt to fake habitats. Other than this, the author implies that humans must seem animals in person rather than watching them on “two-dimensional television”. What the author does not refer to is the fact that animals are mentally tortured to be seen by people in zoos. Zoos may spark interest in education and science, but animals cannot simply be kept in captivity in a separate habitat for this to

Drawing on animal rights claims, the questionable moral status of animals and the land ethic, this essay seeks to argue that zoos; a place in which wild animal’s are held in captivity, are inherently unethical, because they violate the ethical and moral standard in which animals have a claim to. Citing experts in the animal ethics field, this essay will be supported by firstly establishing that animals do in fact have “animal rights” and similarly, that they have a claim to a moral status relative to that of humans. Following this, this essay will show that the animal rights, which zoo animals are privy to, allows us to set an ethical standard on which humans have a duty to treat animals, especially when held in captivity. Analyzing this ethical standard with which me must treat zoo animals, we can deduce that zoos are in fact not ethical in nature and in practice.

Thesis: All zoos should be overhauled and replaced with free-range territories or back into the wild to help these animals avoid the detrimental effects that zoo’s cause on their health and to stop teaching people that is okay to imprison these animals.

The issue on whether or not to keep animals in captivity has been debated heavily for a long time. With species such as the panda on the verge of extinction to mistreatment of marine mammals in theme parks such as Sea World, keeping wild animals under the care of humans has been a struggle and a highly controversial topic. Even though many people believe that animals should not be kept in captivity because humans are incapable of fully understanding and providing specific needs for wild animals, certain animals can be kept happy and healthy in captivity, and these animals are an important educational tool for teaching people of all ages about biology, biodiversity, and the ecosystems of the world.

Did you know that animals don’t always like what they have to eat. Also zoo animals don’t live as long in the zoo as they do in the wild. I’m against zoos because they are bad for animals. The purpose of this paper is to persuade that zoos are bad for animals.The focus of this paper is animals don't like what they have to eat,animals shouldn’t be kept in cages,and animals should be free they don’t live as long in zoos as they do in the wild.

Animals play an important role of human life. Wild animal is a kind that normally lives in the wild, for example: elephants, tigers, rhinos and many others. They live in the wild with spacious and natural environment, however many humans kept them in the zoo, as an attraction for the sake of the money. They didn’t think of the wild animals habitat, and there are some problems arise from keeping them in cages. The shock of being in captivity would depress the animals; they would even act hysterically and might hurt people near them. And it is not the animal to be fault. There are three main reasons why wild animals should not be kept in the zoos:

Close animal encounters provided by aquariums, marine parks, and zoo’s bring joy to many self-proclaimed animal lovers. However, many scientific studies have shown that animals kept in captivity experience many negative effects to their physical and mental well-being. As Mahatma Ghandi, a leader of the Indian independence movement and renowned pacifist, once said, “The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated”. It is time that humanity puts an end to their need to own and contain the things that love; in turn considering what is best for the animals.
