Some people think that zoos are all cruel and should be closed down. Others however believe that zoos can be useful in protecting wild animals. Discuss both opinions and give your own opinion.

Nowadays, almost every city has a zoo, people go there looking for entertainment and to learn about the wildlife.

Although

a segment of society is concerned that

, others,

however

, believe that they should be shut down because

animals

should not be caged. Both points of view need to be addressed before formulating an opinion. To commence with arguments in favour of

zoos

,

first

and foremost, they protect endangered

animals

from illegal activities like poaching and hunting. The number of wildlife is dramatically declining,

this

is happening in response to human habitation, deforestation, pollution and many other reasons.

Hence

,

zoos

help

animals

to avoid the grievous consequences of human beings' activities.

Secondly

, people get a chance to educate themselves and their children about wildlife.

For example

, children learn about

and respect their lives.

On the contrary

,

zoos

curtail freedom. More specifically, predators are meant to hunt to survive, others should run miles to stay healthy which is impossible in

zoos

.

Subsequently

, it detrimentally affects the physical and mental wellbeing of

animals

Use synonyms

. It can be seen in their behaviour,

for instance

, some

animals

go back and forth in their cages not knowing what to do.

Moreover

Linking Words

, not all

animals

in

zoos

belong to the endangered category. They are kept in cages only to entertain humans and bring financial profit to business owners, which is immoral. To conclude, I personally opine that wild creatures are not meant to be kept in cages.

Instead

, they should be preserved in protected national park areas where they have more freedom.
