Zoos Are Inhumane Zoos across the world claim to be safe, suitable homes that replicate habitats of animals that are usually found in the wild. However, there is no possible way for wild habitats to be replicated well enough for animals in captivity to thrive, animals are often separated and withheld from living as they would in the wild. Despite their argument of being educational for visitors, the only thing they are teaching the public is that it is ok to take animals out of the wild and lock

Zoos - places where many species must live, irrespective that they wanted it or not. People can go there and watch them for money. Who cares about the animals prosperity says that zoos must eliminate. But if zoos did not exist, people example speak white tigers in the same way as the mammoths - they have lived on this land, but now they are extinct. Zoos help conservation these species, who probably die in wildlife, because people hunt them own favor. People will be able to better protect animals
Zoos are an unnatural environment for animals. Despite the benefits that may appear to come from zoos, wild animals should not be held in captivity. “A zoo can teach you a lot about how animals behave in captivity but will teach you very little about the behavior of animals in the wild” (2017). Although thought to be educational, zoos are not the best way to learn about animals. Zoos are said to help endangered species by using captive breeding and release, but research shows that captive breeding
I have always enjoyed the zoo, but in the back of my mind, I have constantly thought to myself that it is wrong and I should not be giving money to the people that lock the animals up for our enjoyment. Seeing their sad faces always got to me, but I continue to go. I think the feeling of going and seeing exotic animals in the middle of the United States has always fascinated me. I have always loved animals and been eager to learn more about them. The only problem is they are being locked up and stared
Masters of Disguise: The Inhumanity of Zoos Every year approximately 175 million people go to aquariums, and zoos to spectate and ponder at the vast number of wildlife from every corner of the world (“Static Brain,” n.p.). Little do visitors know that they are witnessing firsthand the imprisonment and inhumane treatment of innocent animals. Wildlife should not be kept captive where they are exposed to overwhelming isolation, a shortened life span, and in the rare occasion when they are released back
The Zoo has been a great place to entertain your friends and family. Displaying and caring for animals is the zoo's first priority. This is the animal's home they should be treated just as well as we are. The zoo plays a big role in our society, according to the Blank Park Zoo it is to inspire an appreciation of the natural world through conservation, education, and recreation. Since ancient times people have been displaying and taming animals from Egypt, Austria, Paris etc. The first legal zoo
Many zoos around the world have captive breeding programs in which they take animals from the wild and breed them in captivity and the offspring of these species become the entertainment of the public. Seeing the new panda bear cub exhibit can bring major business to the zoos, but when the new set of cubs arrive what is to be done with the old cubs? When there is no profitable use or need for an animal in the zoo it is considered a surplus. Surplus animals, if they’re lucky, will be transferred to
Some people believe that zoos are useful for entertainment and educational purposes because they think zoos provide an excellent opportunity to see the wild animals in real without having to go to the jungle. However, others think that zoos must be completely eradicated because they believe it to be a very inhuman act. Banning zoos is a much-debated issue and I certainly agree that zoos should not exist in this century at all. Firstly, from the viewpoint of Animal Rights, it is inhumane and unethical
The Zoo. A magical place for the young and old. A place where you can see animals from far away places. Places that seem untouchable. Look behind the green plants in the enclosure. Take a real look at the animals. Are they happy? No. You might think that they are happy and safe, but they are not. They can develop Zoochosis, they are killed even when they are healthy, and zoos are actually going against conservation efforts. The first reason why animals should not be kept in a zoo is that they can
