Some people think that zoos are cruel and all the zoos should be closed. However, others think that zoos are useful to protect rare animals. Discuss both views and give your own opinion.

In the contemporary epoch,

Zoos

are one of the most visited tourist attractions in any city. A part of the population believes that these facilities are inhuman and should be closed down while the advocates for

zoos

are of diverse opinions. In my opinion,

zoos

are meant solely for human entertainment purposes.

This

essay will discuss both sides of the argument and provide my point of view on the given topic. On the one hand,The opponents of

zoological gardens are of the viewpoint that

animals

are captured in

zoos

solely for human pleasure and money.

This

argument is supported by several facts

such

as

animals

are confined in small cages so humans can look at them and are taught various tactics to entertain tourists. Not only, does

this

prevent these poor creatures from spending their lives in their natural habitat,but

also

takes away their freedom.

In addition

to

, many times

animals

die in wildlife parks due to poor living conditions and lack of nutrition.

For instance

, an investigation conducted on

zoos

following the death of numerous deers in Africa in 2015 showed that only 20% of the income earned from

zoos

was used towards the

animals

.

This

clearly depicts the purpose of these hypocritical facilities.

On the other hand

,The advocates of wildlife parks support

zoos

by arguing that these places protect rare

animals

.

This

is true to some extent because

However

this

is not a valid argument to support

as the same can be done in wildlife sanctuaries and conservation areas with little more effort. Provided that, the

bred in wild would be able to live a free life which can help balance the ecosystems of the Earth.

Although

, their quality of life in nature is significantly better. An example of

were more active and healthy in the forests than in any imprisonment. In conclusion, after
