Should Animals be kept in Zoos
They tend to live longer in zoos Animals live longer in zoos than they do in the wild they get the necessary care and food they need to live a very healthy lifestyle. Lets say if an animal was sick in the wild nine times out of ten they would die or be killed by a predator but if an animal got sick in the zoo it will have a more likely chance of survival because of vetinarians on standby.

Animals live longer When they're in good zoos. If they are out in the wild, they can dye from lack of food, droughts, predators, diseases, and natural disasters. At zoos there are veterinarians on hand, constant food, and there are no predators. A good zoo will prolong the life of an animal. So long as they're taken proper care of, animals should be kept in zoos. Posted by: Anonymous

Why animals should not be kept in zoos. It is cruel to be locked up in a cage seeing the same thing every single day. Should we let the zookeepers continue they're cruelty or should we stop this at once. Would u like to be locked up in a cage with people staring at u and invading your privacy. Posted by: Ishi

    After I read the articles: The Stripes Will Survive by: Jacqueline Adams, and The Zoos Go Wild by Nicholas Nirgiotis and Theodore Nirgiotis I realized how important zoos are to animals. Firstly in the article “The Stripes Will Survive” by Jacqueline Adams it says “Make sure that threatened and endangered animal species don't disappear.” (Paragraph 4) There used to be one hundred thousand tigers roaming in the wild. Now about 5,000 tigers live in the wild. The zoo's breed these animals to make sure that they will survive. The breeding program works like a dating website for animals. They animals get matched by a computer then meet. (Paragraphs 3&5). My next reason is that zoos protect animals from hunters and poachers. “The World Wildlife Fund…

    Throughout the years, it has been over looked whether or not the zoo really is a proper environment to keep animals. Are the animals really being cared for or are they being taken against their will? Are the animals in a comfortable environment or are they just another reason to make money?

    Zoos are like internment camps and should be shut down. Animals deserve the right to live out their lives in their natural habitat, not be the source of human entertainment. Zoos are more detrimental to animals than they are good for them, even though there are conservation efforts and educational purposes for having animals in captivity. The negative aspects far outweigh any positive effects when it comes to having animals in captivity due to poor living conditions, failure to educate, and psychological trauma.…

    Zoos appear to be fun, but as you get more in depth are they what they seem to be? If animals could talk they would answer that question with “no” but, they cannot.

Upon visiting zoos, I have decided that zoos are very cruel to keep animals caged up, often in regions and climates very different from their natural habitat.

    For many years people have debated whether zoos are bad or good. There is the debate about animal cruelty to some extent because the animals are locked up in a cage where they have no freedom. And the other one is how animals in captivity is a good cause due to the dangers that are present in the wild now in days. These two points are an endless debate in which both sides are equivalent to each other.

    Zoos are like animal insurance, preventing predators from being able to hunt them down. As some may say, zoos are cruel and harsh punishments for the poor little animals that happen to be on display, but zoos are nothing in comparison to the devastating, murderous reality of the forests. According to the “Why Zoos Are Good” article,”They will not suffer from the threat or stress of predators (and nor will they be killed in a grisly manner or eaten alive) or the irritation and pain of parasites, injuries and…
