Without captive breeding‚ many endangered species would now be extinct - for example‚ the golden lion tamarin‚ red wolf and Przewalski’s horse. I am not for a moment suggesting that we should stop trying to protect animals’ natural habitats‚ but if endangered species were to become extinct in the wild (which sadly seems quite likely in the near future)‚ zoos will have preserved them for future generations‚ with enough genetic diversity

Alcohol consumption should be banned A dizzying array of research suggests alcohol can have both good and bad effects‚ but making sense of such studies all comes down to preaching about the evil effects of alcohol and the substantial impact on our health.
