Animals at zoos Some people have a negative attitude to zoos because they consider them as a cruel place for animals, while the others believe in their good mission to protect endangered animals. I think that zoos play an important role in protecting wildlife under threat. On the one hand, zoos are considered a bad place to keep animals, because of a lot of sad examples and many people do not trust them anymore. First of all, it is unethical to use animals for entertainment. Wild animals work at zoos the big part of their life and do not have a chance to live in their natural habitat. Secondly, scientists cannot say precisely if anmals like working at zoos and if they would choose it. Thus, people have no rights to make animals live in captivity. Finally, zoos exhibit animals with the aim to make profit. Zoos owners only want to make money and they do not take care of animals properly. As a result, animals are fed badly, they have health issues, and they may even be abandoned if they did not work anymore. On the other hands, zoos make a huge contribution to protecting wild animals. Many endangered species are bred in captivite, particular in zoos and it helps to save rare species and increases their population. For example, zoo workers in China have been fighting for panda’s population and have been successfully breeding them there for many years now. In addition, It is important fo scientists to study animals behaviour. These studies have a great impact on preserving wildlife now and in the future, and they are valuabale for people as well. In conclusion, zoos have many inevitable drawbacks, but I think that they are crutial for scientific researches and wildlive conservation.
