In my opinion the zoos can be educational because they keep exotic animals which most of us couldn’t see in their natural environment in Asia or Africa. To visit a good zoo is our only opportunity to get to know some wonderful

Third‚ animals are very territorial. They will live with the mindset‚ “there is no place like home”‚ and thus‚ will ultimately
