Many people think that zoos are cruel. Others think they are helpful in protecting rare animals. Discuss both sides and give your own opinion.

Zoos are considered to be beneficial in the preservation of endangered species. While there are some who think

inhumane. In my opinion, animals should be free to enjoy the natural habitat, which they were meant to, in the
first
place. Admittedly, Zoos are important as animals facing extinction are protected from

On the other hand

animals
are subjected to a life which is unnatural to them when kept in cages.
This
means that there is no freedom to move around, interact with the environment, and explore nature.
For example
, birds which are meant to fly, and hunt for their own food are confined to very small cages.
However
, in my opinion,
this
is highly degrading, and unfair, as these animals
also
have feelings, and wants,
thus
, subjecting them to confinement may result in depression and illnesses, which results from lack of exercise. To conclude, despite the minor benefits of collecting endangered creatures and keeping them safe in zoos, they deserve the chance to be free to search for their meals, and enjoy the wonders nature has to offer.
