wildlife campaigner, once said “We would consider it cruel to confine a dog permanently in a kennel. Yet we visit zoos where hundreds of wild animals are kept permanently in the equivalent of a kennel.” On average, 6,126 animals are kept in enclosures (Statistic Brain). Of those 6,126 animals, only 1,041 are endangered. The 5,085 are kept in tight, confined areas for “educational purposes.” Zoos date back to as far as 2500 BCE with evidence that rulers and people of higher class used exotic animals as

Imagine being captive for life. In a cage locked up when your so innocent. Zoos have become a controversial issue in our society, and from what I am thinking, I feel that it’s not right to keep the animals in zoos. So do we have the rights to do that?

They just looked kind of lifeless and disinterested,” Zoos are businesses that surround breeding and buying wild animals. Around 10,000 zoos worldwide hold at least 3,000 animals each

There are those who contend that it is merciless to deprive animals of freedom and captivate them in zoos. It follows, therefore, they claim that all zoos should be shut down. Their detractors, however, argue that zoos are efficient in protecting endangered animals from extinction. As far as I am concerned, I strongly favour the latter contention. There is a plethora of reasons, to my way of thinking, why the former assertion is advocated by some people. Perhaps chief among these is the fact that

and prod at them. These animals that live in zoos, are not happy, here's why. There is not enough space, zoos fuel capacity, and zoos mistreat the animals.The issue is getting worse by the minute please support my cause. Donate to the NNZZ. Can you tell me where animals came from? Yeah, that’s right, they came from this magical place called the wild. Honestly if we didn’t have zoos some species would be not even surviving but thriving, Because the zoos do not have nearly enough space for the animals

claim about protecting animals in zoos is clear. In the article titled "The Stripes Will Survive" it talks more about breeding and doubling the population. It uses two tiger cubs as examples. It also says, "They keep a computerized family tee of zoo tigers that helps match males and females for breeding." They say that if it wasn't for this test Danya and Dasha's parents would never have breeded and the cubs would never have been born.

Most of the animals in zoos aren’t even endangered. Zoos are great but need to improve. We need to focus on these things that need to be improved in our zoos. In 2016

Zoos dedicate their existence to the animals that occupy the confines of the property. More and more zoos are getting the face lift they deserve to provide a safe, healthy, and happy place for their residents. Gone are the previously used “cell blocks” to house the animals.
