Many people think that zoos are cruel. Others think they are helpful in protecting rare animals. Discuss both sides and give your own opinion.

Zoos
are a place where numerous
animals
are taken care of thoroughly, mainly for tourism purposes as they are symbolic of our national ecological system. The majority of people have the idea that
zoos
are an evil place for
animals
,
while
some think that it helps to conserve the local endangered species.
Hence
, I believe there are reasons for the conflict between these two perspectives. First of all, the
zoo
may seem cruel towards the
animals
as they are separated from their original habitat. The new place in the
zoo
for the
animals
has caused them to feel great stress as they have to adapt to their new environment.

, the Malayan Tiger

zoo
will not get adapted to the wild on its own as they do not possess survival skills.
This
should be concerning as the
animals
are not supposed to be kept in a foreign area to them, just for the sake of human business.
On the other hand
, there is
also
a saying that
zoos
actually play an important role in conserving the
animals
that are listed as endangered on the red list by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). Most
zoos
will not only protect the
animals
by providing them with full resources
such
as food and great habitat, but they will
also
try to increase the population of the species through breeding programmes to prevent them from going extinct forever.
For example
,
Zoos
in China is trying to increase the population of Panda by making sure each of their offsprings is well-taken care of, as female panda tends to neglect their children after giving birth.
Thus
, it can be said that
zoos
are responsible

to the

. I think that It actually depends on how the management of the
zoo
handles its
animals
. As long as the
zoos
provide the best environment and conditions for the
animals
to live without any form of cruelty, only
then
it is morally acceptable to society.

Support ideas with relevant, specific examples

Examples make your writing easier to understand by illustrating points more effectively.

Examples, if used properly, not only help you get higher marks for ‘Task Response’ but also for ‘Coherence’.

When giving examples it is best to put them after your main idea or topic sentence. They can be used in the middle of supporting sentences or they can be used to start a new sentence. There is no rule for where exactly to give examples in essays, logically they would come after your main idea/topic sentence or just after a supporting sentence.

Linking words for giving examples:

  • for example
  • for instance
  • to illustrate this
  • to give a clear example
  • such as
  • namely
  • to illustrate
  • take, for example
