Captivity

shouldn't be on the list. (Claim) I'm not talking about injured animals in need of help or endangered species. (Qualifier) I'm talking about letting wild animals life in the wild. The animals in captivity suffer from depression and limited exercise. (Evidence) Some say the creatures live longer in captivity than in their natural environment. (Rebuttal) In more cases than not, this isn't true. Living in a cage is a dreadful way to live. (Warrant) In these cages and tanks that are so called…

eagles were yelling and trying to fly away and the big animals don't have much room to run around, from the looks of it, it seems pretty bad. I think keeping animals in a controlled environment is bad. I think we should reduce the amount of animal captivity. Controlled animal facilities are bad because there's not enough room, some animals get hurt, and it decreases their lifespan. Controlled animal facilities are bad because lack of space. At the zoo Tigers and Lions are kept in a small area…

Ngugi’s novel follows four main characters who tell us about their experiences days before the Mau Mau rebellion against the British colonial rule. The dominant theme which I believe that Ngugi is trying to convey is that of betrayal. Which is depicted mainly through four main characters: Mugo, Gikonyo and his spouse; Mumbi, and Karanja. Ngugi forces us to think about Mugo: his betrayal of his friend Kihika, the leader of the rebellion. He forces us to find reasons as to why he actually…

outside world sound like fun to you? Animals in captivity live a life similar to that every single day. Captivity is not natural. It negatively affects an innocent animal's life forever. How an animal lives in captivity is completely different than how wild animals live. It is quite simple really: wild animals belong in the wild and caged animals should cease to exist due to reasons such as diet, life expectancy, and behavior. Being an animal in captivity has its pros and cons when it's meal…

There are lions and other baby animals born into captivity. Lions are one of the biggest ones that should not be born in captivity. If a lion is born into captivity, then you can not release it into the wild. If you do release back into the wild the lion will not know how to hunt and find food for it's self because it has always had a human to rely on for all of that. When a cub is in captivity, people can play with it, hold it, and pet it. But when the cub gets to big to cuddle then they, end…

Orcas have been stuck in captivity since the mid-1900s. They were first captured from their ocean environment and moved to tanks that were small and modified for their conditions. John Hargrove a former SeaWorld trainer said, “...I was thrilled to be apart of the orcas’ lives for so long, I finally came to the realization that if I had to live their lives, it would be hell. Captivity is always captivity, no matter how gentle the jailer”(9). That is why, regardless of their ultimate fate, orcas…

Animals Shouldn’t Be In Captivity To many people, animals are fascinating and intriguing to witness. Most wouldn’t want to hurt or abuse them in any way because they know it would be wrong. If only those people knew that every time they go to a zoo or aquarium, they are paying people to do just that. Animals don’t want to be torn away from their homes so they can be watched by civilians. They would likely much rather live in peace, away from humans, in the wild but because it benefits us humans…

into captivity because of the orca's intelligence, what conditions are needed in order for orcas to be happy, and the lack of education that aquariums like Seaworld provide. For example, the director of the movie Blackfish responded to claims that a Seaworld trainer made about the issue of whale capacity. The trainer stated that “we as humans should not differentiate based on the intelligence level” and the director came back saying “the evidence on animals intelligence in level in captivity…

The Effects of Orcas in Captivity Ever wonder what goes on behind the scenes of the killer whale shows at SeaWorld? So much preparation goes into the shows at SeaWorld. This causes frustration within the whales that can result in whales acting out on other whales and SeaWorld trainers. So, is captivity good for the orcas? Despite the fact that millions of people go to SeaWorld every year to see the killer whales, the animals are actually mistreated. If SeaWorld doesn’t change their ways, then…

An issue that has sparked debate in recent years is the care of wild animals in captivity. Peoples main concerns align with the belief that wild animals belong in their natural habitat not confined to cages. To ease civil unrest, the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) was created to hold Zoos accountable for the care of their animals by requiring them to develop enrichment programs to simulate the natural environment of animals that cannot be released back into the wild. Although polices…
