Some people believe that zoos where animals are kept in man-made environments should no longer exist in the 21st century. Do you agree or disagree?

For many years,

zoos

have attracted people by showing various

animals

.

However

, these days there is the argument that the presence of those facilities is not suitable in our society in terms of irrational behaviour towards

animals

since we restrict their lives for human benefit. I disagree with

this

viewpoint because I believe that there are several merits for humans and even

animals

to continue to open. There is the fact that compelling

animals

to accommodate cages to entertain audiences could be considered immoral. Some people may argue that living beings ought to inhabit natural environments, and humans should not be concerned with their lives because it could destroy ecosystem balance. Even if zookeepers attempt to recreate natural surroundings for

animals

, they are merely artefacts pretending to be authentic. Having said that, I consider that

zoos

provide not only us but

also

animals

with positive effects. First of all, that facility amuses and educates us.

In particular

, when it comes to visiting

zoos

with family, it can be an enjoyable time, and it could

also

be used to educate children. Not only do humans merit

this

, but

zoos

also

contribute to avoiding the extinction of species. In contemporary times, zookeepers' care for

animals

is exceptional, and they devote themselves to offering a more comfortable environment for

animals

. If some specific species of wildlife face extinction,

zoos

could maintain them. In conclusion,

although

some people are of the opinion that

zoos

are not suitable in

this

era because they jeopardise ecosystem balance, I disagree with

this

idea, as

zoos

would rather cherish their

animals

.
