Zoo or Animal’s Jail? When I was a child‚ I went to the zoo all the time with my family. I love animals and as a child I enjoyed watching them. I thought being able to see them in person would be neat‚ but once I saw them “up close and personal‚” it was evident that the animals were miserable.

But are the animals happy about being locked in cages and being seen by people everyday? Or do they want to live in the environments that they are supposed to live?
