There are many good reasons for having zoos in our cities. Most importantly, they attract tourists and make money for the city. Visitors get a chance to see wild animals that they would not see unless they travelled far away. Rare species, like the Chinese panda, Indian tiger, or African rhino ,for example, are endangered and if we had no zoos they would die. Zoos care for these aminals and give us chance to see them. Therefore, we cannot underestimate the educational importance of zoos.
