Persuasive Essay On Zoo Research Paper

Zoos may seem fun to visit and exciting to see the animals; but what you don’t see is the suffering and depression that lies in these helpless creatures. There are many arguments whether or not zoos are good or bad, and if they should be removed or kept. Several think that zoos should be abolished or at least very much improved, due to animal cruelty. While, others want zoos to stay because it is beneficial for the animals and people. I strongly believe that zoos aren’t good for both the public and animals for numerous reasons.

The deeper I dig into animal abuse , the more I want to become a vegetarian. But it is not easy as it seems. The things that I have seen and read makes me sick to my stomach. To watch a hopeless cow, get whipped , is sickening. Watching baby Chicklets die in a big machine , brings tears to my eyes. Millions of animals every day die cruel deaths , and I no longer want to be an accomplice to the crimes. While it may be hard to retrain myself , I should and intend to just stop eating meat.

The zoo is a popular place for families and people of all ages to visit, especially, in the Chicagoland area, where our two zoos: Brookfield and Lincoln Park, are a favorite for families to visit all year long. However, there is a controversy over zoos: whether they’re humane or not. For example, in 2016, Harambe, a gorilla, was killed at the Cincinnati Zoo after a three-year-old child climbed into the enclosure. Harambe sparked debate over whether animals should be held in captivity and the standard of care at zoos.

For to long the world has ignored China's Speciesism and it's repugnant miscynist citizens living inside and outside this vile country

Animal shelters are overflowing, some euthanizing dogs just because they no longer have the resources to care for these animals, yet people are still buying their dogs from the pet store. When getting a new dog, adopt it from the animal shelter rather than buying it from a pet store.

Smallpox, Polio, Insulin, Rubella, Malaria, Tuberculosis, Cardiac Pacemaker, Tetanus, Penicillia, Organ transplants, Blood transfusions and many more are all medical breakthroughs that have all be tested on animals to see if they will make humans better ( facts on animal research). If it wasn’t for animal testing than millions of people would have died, so many people were getting sick and dieing and no one knew why so by using different mixtures of chemicals a scientist was able to create vaccines that were first tested on animals to make sure that they are safe to use. Many of the household products such as lipstick, mascara, shampoo and cologne that we use in our everyday life are tested on animals first in order to see if they are safe

For thousands of years wolves have roamed the lands all around the world. From rich mythology and forgotten lessons, scientists have found evidence of wolves in almost every culture. Driven and hunted to near extinction conservation efforts have uncovered these long-forgotten teachings once again. Researchers are reminded of important family dynamics and the many parallels found in humans. Wolves were on the endangered list because they were hunted until almost extinction. Settlers farming of the land and the value of furs drove the hunt to eradicate one of nature’s top-level predators. Over the last few centuries biologists, ecologists, and scientists have been studying the effect this eradication has had on natures ecology. By observing the reintroduction of wolves into Yellowstone National Park scientists are uncovering new information on the real impact of top predators like the wolves. While the fight for survival of their species continues conservationists are fighting to find common ground to live and coexist with these formidable predators. Despite the legalization of massive slaughter of thousands of these majestic animals for sport, children of the next generation are already educating themselves and advocating for conservation. The hope is that these education and conservation efforts will allow humans and wolves to co-exist.

Zoos in America are often seen as a part of the “American dream” but they hold a deeper tragic truth behind them. When you think of zoos you probably envision visiting one with your family and seeing animals that you may have never seen in person in your lifetime but what you fail to think about are the factors in zoos. Many zoos are unfit places for animals to live and this needs to be changed. The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) is the authority holder on all zoos regulations and to make zoos fit places for animals to live we must force them to make a change. The USDA needs to increase regulations in zoos to decrease negative health effects in animals, improve integration processes to release animals back into the wild and to reconfigure habitats to get animals closer to their natural environment.

The sight of an unfamiliar animal can be a welcome distraction, even a short-term remedy, for a sick child. But you can't put a leash and a surgical mask on a rhino and march it through the front door of a hospital for a visit. That's why zoos and aquariums across the U.S. are teaming up with pediatric hospitals. They are beaming in video footage of sea otters getting their teeth brushed, tiger cubs getting belly rubs, and pandas munching on bamboo.

All over the United States, millions of different types of animals are being held captive simply for entertainment. They are being stolen from their homes, brought into an unknown place, and are forced to adapt to different standards of living. Animals being confined in cages gradually become more and more unhappy and they suffer to give people a small moment of happiness. Over thousands of years since the format of zoos have been introduced, animals are constantly being stripped of their natural right as living beings for the sole purpose of public enjoyment. People camouflage the inhumanity of zoos, for various reasons and are revealed to the public that they are okay. Zoos should be outlawed due to the insufficient space that is being provided for the animals, the

Poaching, when thought about the main focus is to think about deer, elephants, or rhinos. But what is the actual definition? Poaching is defined as “the illegal practice of trespassing on another’s property to hunt or steal game without the landowner’s permission,” but how does a person steal game from a forest? There has been some addition to what falls under poaching, now what is included in the term is wild plants. Poaching is such a lucrative business, the income overall is estimated to be worth $70-213 billion a year, the money is such a desirable aspect to get involved, but is the extinction of an animal race a good enough reason? The money will always be there, however, these animals may not. It is something that happens all the time at many different rates, the more common the animal or large and exotic it is, the more likely it is to be poached. The pangolin, even though they are hardly known in the United States, has been huge on the poaching scale in Africa and Asia, with China being their main buyers. Making legislation to help safeguard these animals is hard because it is not like you can put a fence around them in hopes it would ward off poachers. Though Congress has tried to make strides in helping protect them by insisting that all species of the pangolin, which is 8, be put on the endangered animals list. This, in turn, adds even more of a consequence to those who try to hunt them.

In today’s modern society, humans have made countless improvements to our way of life with the introduction of laws and ideas that makes life easier. But as we progress, we need to keep in mind that there are other living, breathing individuals that are affected by the choices of humans. Plants and wildlife also bear the burden that comes with changes in the environment. Activities that humans engage in can have an affect many times greater on wildlife. Activities like deforestation for housing developments or overfishing to provide for a high demand of seafood. Drilling for oil and natural minerals destroys the ground that plants use for soil to grow and, in turn, limits the hospitability of an environment for animals to thrive. Many

Earth is home to about 1.7 million discovered species. The most glorious group on the planet is the animal kingdom. Unfortunately, more and more animals are being hunted to the point of endangerment and eventually become extinct. I believe zoos are a wonderful place to protect animals and give the public a chance to learn about them. Mr. Dewan I would be an excellent zookeeper at the Philadelphia Zoo. I believe any and every animal is lovable. I have experience with different species. I would be a dedicated and devoted employee.

Almost all living things have a cycle or a system which they are part of. Most species depend upon each other. “The U.S. for service like parts of the human body, to make functioning hole.” That basically means like a human body to work together with all of its organs humans need animals to work together that way we can all survive. Should we prevent excessive hunting and poaching to help our environment and the fate of the human existence. I think the answer is yes! Saving most of these endangered species have become crucial.

This photo from the World Wildlife Fund is apart of a series of similar photos. In these other photos the bluefin tuna are wearing rhinoceros and gorilla masks. For some reason these pandas and other creatures are the “mainstream” endangered animals. People seem to care more about these animals even though the bluefin tuna is actually in more danger. But, why? Is it because they are cuter? Nicer? More known?
