some people believe that zoos have no useful purposes. do you agree or disagree with the following statement?

Keeping wild

animals

in cages for public exhibitions is a tradition that people have been performing for a long time and for the majority of people

this

is an amusement and educational purpose for kids while others think it to be a very inhuman act.

This

is a much-debated issue and I personally find no usefulness of a zoological garden where these

animals

and birds of different kinds are kept for public entertainment.

First

of all, the idea of keeping wild

animals

in cages is really a brutal one and humans should not be proud of acting like

this

. Who has given us the power and authority to forcefully bring

animals

to zoos and

then

be hilarious watching their activities? Do our weapons and brains make us superior and powerful enough to decide the lives of other species? No, if we are superior to those wild

animals

, it is our humanity and superiority of thinking power and where would that humanity be when we engage other species? There are thousands of amusement parks and children's parks and we should not make a

zoo

that would only represent our brutality and the outcry of the

animals

. Have we ever thought if a more intelligent species arrives in our territory and encases us as we do to other

animals

, how pathetic that would be for us? Many people would say that those are educational purposes and to let the kids know about those

animals

. But in a

zoo

what we see are encaged

animals

with their dismay and helplessness. Children would never learn the true nature of those

animals

when they would learn it from a

zoo

. Programs

such

as Animal Planet and Discovery channels are two better alternatives for children to learn about those wild

animals

than the

zoo

. Zoos in many countries are used for commercial purposes and no matter what the authorities do; they can’t ensure a free life for a bird that should be flying in the sky rather than trying to escape from the cage. In conclusion, the

zoo

serves no useful purpose and there are no good reasons to put the

animals

and birds in cages.
