Are our zoos cruel to wild animals?
I don’t really like zoos. It’s hard to see how pour animals are living in cells. There aren’t many of truly good zoos. Most of them are absolutely awful. Cells are very small, animals don’t have enough space for living, for active moving. Often we can see only one example of spices while many of animals need some company. They can’t get various food and all kinds of vitamins, sometimes some of the zoos can’t provide a fresh or original fruits for any particular spices. I’m sure all of these reasons are only the top of the iceberg, however, isn’t this enough?
Even if a zoo is very big, have a lot of money and sponsors for keeping animals in appropriate living condition doesn’t mean that it’s a good idea to hold animals there. Surely, animals who wasn’t born in wildlife can’t survive there, but it’s another topic.
The main idea of those who build zoos and those who goes there is how else people can see the exotic creature without a zoo. Still, we should remember this slogan was created decades of years ago. Now we have lots of technologies which can help us even to “see” dinosaurs. Anyway, with or without zoos we can’t see most of the animals of our planet – there are so many of them! We keep founding out information about new ones from the Internet or TV programs. Also, it’s impossible to watch the natural behavior of a wild animal in zoos.
There’s one more idea is saving the population of dying breed. However, I still can’t agree that zoo is a right choice.
So, what to do then? I think conservancy area is a good alternative, which can solve all these problems.

I don’t really like zoos. It’s hard to see how poor animals are living in cells. There aren’t many truly good zoos. Most of them are absolutely awful.

The main reason for those who build zoos and for those who go there is how else one can see these exotic creatures without a zoo? Still, we should remember that this question was posed decades ago. Now we have lots of technologies which can help us even to “see” dinosaurs. Anyway, with or without zoos we can’t see most of the animals on our planet – there are so many of them! We keep discovering new ones in jungles and elsewhere. Also, it’s impossible to watch the natural behaviour of a wild animal in a zoo.
There is one more idea advanced in favour of zoos; that of saving the population of a dying breed. However, I still can’t agree that the zoo is the right choice.
So, what to do, then? I think the conservancy area is a good alternative, which can solve all these problems.
