zoos should close as they are prejudicial to animals. what is your opinion?

It is important to consider the major roles that
zoos
hold in society by saving endangered
animals
and keeping biodiversity.
While
some people argue that they have baneful impacts on
animals
´ lives, and
hence
, should no longer be open, others advocate their benefits regarding the protection of uncommon
species
. I firmly believe that
zoos
are useful to protect
animals
and
this
essay will highlight two reasons beyond that. In the first instance, it is undeniable that
zoos
play a vital role in society by rescuing
animals
in danger or injured, which are
then
treated and
lastly
released to their original habitat. A prime illustration of
this
is when sea
animals
such
as whales or turtles reach the sea coast,
zoos
are the main responsible to look after them, treating all the injuries and health conditions, and after being cured, they are released into the ocean. If
zoos
were not available, many
animals
would die after approaching beaches.
Zoos
excel in their job by controlling the
animals
' reproduction, indeed. It has been shown that for certain
species
only a few
animals
are left in the world, so when they are taken into
zoos
, they promote an efficient multiplication of the
species
in order to prevent extinction.
For instance
,
although
there are some varieties of African lions facing the risk of disappearing,
this
is being mitigated by the controlled environment for
further
reproduction offered by
zoos
.
This
would not happen if
zoos
close down and,
consequently
, many
species
would disappear. In summary,
whereas
some people do not see that
zoos
are advantageous, I am a vehement supporter of their existence
due to
their precious job of aiding
animals
in need and sending them back to their natural habitat,
as well as
offering favourable conditions to breeding which helps to avoid
further
extinction.
