that level. Every day, I hear tons of news and tragic stories of animal living in captivity, how they suffered to amuse human, how they live without care in unqualified conditions. Detroit Zoo mentioned in the article “Detroit Journal; Ripples of Controversy after a Chimp Drowns” was opposed by letting many chimps drown because of the moat they use for chimp exhibit. The other case is Lincoln Park Zoo which was drawing criticism from animal right activists by the dead of nine animals in the short

There are over 2,000 species that are either endangered or threatened in the United States and in foreign countries in the year 2016 according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. The biodiversity all across the world is decreasing at a tremendous rate. Because of this, the protection of endangered species is a very important focus. In 1973 the Endangered Species Act was put into effect. Under this Act, all threatened and endangered species are protected. The biodiversity refers to the variety

When I was a little girl, I was always eager to have a day out to the zoo where I could get up close with hundreds of beautiful animals. I heard many interesting stories of animal life and how hard they have to fight in wild life to survive. Zoo, under my eyes, was a wonderful land where animals were rescued and taken care off in a safe beautiful place. It was much more fun when I figured out animal could do many interesting things as human did as monkey could drive bicycle, and dolphin can dance

700 million people across the world visit zoos annually and over 10,000 zoos exist worldwide (The World Zoo Conservation Strategy). Wildlife parks and aquariums generate $5,136,250,000 each year in the United States alone (Encyclopedia Entry: Zoos). Millions of animals are held captive and live very different lives from their ancestors. The history of zoos shows that thousands of years ago, monarchs held animal’s captive to show power and wealth (Encyclopedic Entry: Zoos). Today, it can be argued

testing. Pacemakers for heart disease and remedies for glaucoma and hip dysplasia (Biomedical Research). Rachel Hajar, a Biologist, states “Animal testing has also been a great help in saving endangered species from extinction, including the black footed ferret and the Condor species. Even Koala bears are catching sexually transmitted chlamydia and now classified as endangered in some regions of Australia (Hajar).

The Government and Environmental Policy The purpose of the United States' public policy law is to implement restrictions in an effort to solve problems, which can be seen with the Clean Water Act. Public policy has also been employed to reform the Endangered Species Act of 1973. Although the United States government is noble in it's efforts to preserve the environment through these acts, the internal structure of public policy often retards these acts' effectiveness. This paper will explore the

Animal Experimentation Crucial and Ineffective. Is it right to take the life of an innocent animal? Animals have been burnt, cut, sliced, and tortured, all for the sake of a human being. This is usually done just to make money or find if a chemical is safe for humans. Is this right? Lab experimentation that includes animals is inhumane. Animal’s life is just as important as a human’s life, people are torturing animals, and animal testing doesn’t show whether or not a product is safe for humans. Opinions

Animal testing has been used repeatedly in the history of biomedical research. Animal testing is done so that medical researchers comprehend health problems before they can develop a way to treat them. However, recently animal right groups have been criticizing and opposing any kind of animal experiments. They believe it is cruel and inhumane to use animals for testing because the tests conducted on animals are painful. Some countries agreeing with animal rights groups have even banned animal testing
