Some people think zoos are cruel and all the zoos should be closed. However, some people think zoos can help protect the rare animals. Discuss both these views, and give your opinion.

Some individuals made a proposal that
zoos
should be banned all around the world,
while
others disagree
due to
the protection they provide for endangered species. I am in favour of the latter point of view. On the one hand, the main reason why a number of

survival conditions again.
In addition
, visitors may treat animals in the wrong way.
For instance
, there are some reports about individuals who feed monkeys and other beasts with bread ignoring the notice boards. These behaviours are not allowed, because human food may sometimes be harmful to their health.
On the other hand
, people who stand up for
zoos
insist that it plays a crucial role in the rare species’ protection.
Firstly
, animals in
zoos
, compare to wild species, are able to live a better life, which means they do not have to escape from their predators or suffer from food insufficiency.
As a result
, it brings endangered animals a longer life expectancy and a rise in the amount of their population.
Secondly
, income from
zoos
can be used for preventing creatures from extinction.
For example
, money from the Chengdu

organization contributes to pandas’ reproduction plan. In
this
way, not only living conditions of zoo creatures can be improved, but
also
experiments by zoologists can be founded. In conclusion,
