Argument - Should animals be
kept in zoos
For the past few weeks we have been working on arguments. Last week we had to writ an argument on should animals be kept in zoos.
Should animals be kept in zoos
I believe that animals should not be kept in zoos. First of all, animals are not meant to be kept in captivity, and animals are being forced to be breed. You never know what is happening to the animal when the zoo’s are closed.
There will never ever ever be enough space for animals to live in. Animals are made to run and roam in a big space that will never end. Did you know that if animals are kept in captivity they will die a lot sooner than if they were in the wild.
Yes it is good that some zoos have breeding programs to help endangered animals. I think it is cruel that they make animals breed and then as soon as the animals are born they take it away from their mothers, then put the babies up for show so more people will come and pay to see the baby animal.
Do you love watching animals do cool and fun tricks? What would you say if those animals that you are watching have been abused and starved to make them do those tricks. There are a couple of good zoos, but think about how many zoos there are in the world? Imagine yourself as an animal behind a clear plastic window and watching people pay to come and stare at you all day long.
In conclusion I believe that animals should not be kept in zoos. I hope that after reading my side of the argument that you also believe that animals should not be kept in zoos.
