Zoo has no useful purposes
Zoo is not a right place to make people more sympathetic with animals. Conversely, it may send an indirect negative message to our future generation about how they should treat these creatures as if they are created for being under human control.
Animals should naturally and freely grow up in the environment in which they are born. One of the most dramatic cases that I watched on "YouTube " was about a child who inadvertently fell out of his mother's hand into the cage of gorilla. At the first moment, the gorilla hold him softly and was trying to settle him, but he kept crying. So, she started to play with him as she is used to do with her babies by holding one of his foot and dragging him around. Anyway, it was a final choice made by her. For protecting the kid, the keeper had to shout her. So it's not so funny to put the life of animals at risk of irresponsible, reckless and curious people.
Some argue that zoo gives the best way for education because it provides vivid information about the behavior of animals. However, zoo doesn't like jungles and forests. Then, this unnatural environment may lead to artificial responses. Moreover, technology provides us with another creative ways which are better than zoo like 3D documentary movies.

I definitely agree with you. Zoos are not jungles, or any natural wild habitat, and therefore animals in zoos do not behave like they would in the wild. Plus, to really understand how an animal lives, one must observe the animal for years in its natural habitat. Not a 5 minute viewing of the animal in a cage.
Marketing zoos as "educational" has been a way to deflect the ethical concerns people have about their existence. Zoos exist to provide entertainment, and always have.
