Many individuals hold the view that keeping animals in
zoo
are cruel, while others argue that rare animals can be protected in
. There are some rational arguments on both sides.
However
, I maintain that apart from some positive aspects of
, it is an inappropriate place for animals to live.
Firstly
, preserving animals, especially rare ones, from hazardous situations is considered crucial. Because it is animals that contribute to a natural cycle of wildlife and they are regarded as a vital part of the natural world. In order to protect animals, several solutions can be considered
such
as legal treatment with illegal predators, increasing awareness of people about the importance of preserving rare animals, and
also
keeping animals in zoos. Living in zoos allowed to protect endangered species from a lot of threats they probably confront. A couple of illegal predators tend to hunt animals to use their meat, fur or leather.
Therefore
, when living in a
zoo
, the animals are least likely to expose to unsafe and dangerous positions
for example
being a prey for hunters.
Secondly
, todays some natural habitats of animals undergo several human activities leading to devastating effect on them like deforestation.
Furthermore
, some natural habitats are destroyed because of urbanization. In these circumstances, a couple of species may lose their residence and it is a
zoo
which is able to provide an appropriate shelter for them. Thanks to trained
zookeepers
,
zoothe syllable naming the fifth (dominant) note of any musical scale in solmization
can bring a safe and proper environment and meals for surviving them.
Despite of all mentioned benefits, I strongly believe that keeping animals in
is regarded as an inhuman behaviour. Animals in a
zoo
are more likely to experience a life of misery and be deprived of a liberal life. It can be seen a hopeless feeling in them because they prefer were free life in natural habitat
such
as jungles and forests rather than living in a cage in zoos. Actually, The more they feel free, the more enjoyable their lives will be. Take an energetic monkey living in a forest, he can freely jump to trees in an extensive place, but in the
zoo
there is no enough place for him and he cannot experience any freedom sense in
.
In addition
, some zoos perhaps fail to provide a suitable condition for animals so that keeping them in
such
zoos not only do not help in protecting them but
also
cause their death.
For example
, I have read an article about an animal died in a
zoo
because of high temperature.
In conclusion,
although
it could be inferred that zoos are admitted to preserving rare animals from hazardous conditions, I believe that keeping them in zoos is not a fair behaviour and they required to enjoy from their natural habitats.
