The word zoo is a fairly broad term. Zoos are most commonly thought of as an attraction rather than a means for education. More importantly‚ they are rarely associated with the survival of the human race. While zoos are a form of entertainment for the public and a taxable industry for the government; most of them do in fact research the animals they have in their captivity. This research can be beneficial and life saving for humans and if it were not for this testing‚ we would not have many key vaccines

“Animals are not ours to eat‚ wear‚ experiment on‚ use for entertainment‚ or abuse in any other ways.” (Peta) The topic I chose to protest for is animal abuse. Not just any animal abuse but circus animal abuse. Animals are fun and to see them do things animals don’t really do. The thing you don’t see is how these circus animals are treated just to do the things you do see. These animals go through a lot believe it or not. Animals get parted from their family. They have no free wild time. They spend

Humans are superior because they have more power and are more advanced than the other domesticated animals. Animals do possess souls and you can tell many animals moods by facial expressions showing they are happy
