Trillions of dollars are given away freely every year in the form of ecological services. Most people take for granted the services that our ecosystems provide at no cost. These services are essential to our way of life and happen behind-the-scenes on a daily basis. Protection from the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays is one such service that we take for granted. Support and growth of plants‚ wildlife‚ and bacteria that supply the majority of medicines is another important service. Unfortunately many

Throughout my zoo experience I did observe some unique and different behaviors that would most likely not occur in the wild. Since I watched the gibbons the longest I have much information on them. On behavioral difference it is based on the environment since now they are swinging on symmetrical poles and no longer tree branches. I’m sure they are less cautious of breaking branches and do not even different sized branches or limbs. As I have researched I have discovered that many gibbons‚ because

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. It instantly became very clear that the animals imprisoned in zoos were sad and don’t want to be kept in artificial environments; many were sick and depressed. To put it simply‚ zoos are imprisoning animals

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
