positive climate of zoos

Zoos provide more for animal’s

Many people that have physically seen zoos assume that the animal’s freedoms have been taken away from them, that their life is dull and has no purpose in life, well they are wrong. Animals taken out of the wild and placed in zoos are protected from diseases. They have food given to them daily, and lastly are protected from other carnivores or dangers in the environment. Due to these statements, in my opinion zoos are a better home for animals compared to the wild.

In the wilderness animals just like humans, encounter diseases, to better protect our self’s we use needles and medicine. Unfortunately animals do not have this luxury and therefore end up dying. During their time phase in a zoo, if animals are fortuned to get sick, there are needles and medicine to help these animals recover. And have a way better chance of surviving compared to the wilderness. More caution is then given to the animal that is sick until better. The wilderness there is no safety. Once sick, depending on the sickness, it will slow the animal down or cause the animal to have a disadvantage in the wilderness that give other animals the opportunity to kill them if being hunted. The animal is likely to lose its appetite and can also end up dying of starvation, animals do not know what’s best for them once sick, and end up hurting their health even more. In zoos the trainers know what’s best for the animal, and therefore are only given the essential items to help them recover quicker. Zoos provide a longer life span due to the fact that medicine and help is provided in the zoo once sick compared to the wilderness.

Animal’s out in the wild need to eat, but disaster can occur and can affect their chance of finding food. Forests fires can wipe out homes for animals and also kill all the plants and grass for the animals that are herbivores. Their chance of survival is greatly decreased due to the fact
