The Wild Animal Trade The wild animal trade, or more commonly known as the pet trade, has been an increasing reoccurrence for thousands of years. Through the process of the trade, exotic animals are captured and taken from their natural habitats and are transported long distances to new, frightening, and smaller homes. After the long, stressful process of trade, different species of animals are transported to different destinations worldwide. Some animals are taken to specialist where they will…

Around the world animals are held against their free will. They are tortured and deprived of having a life in the wild that is natural for them. Even though zoos, aquariums, and other animal holding facilities are seen as safe havens that provide protection for animals from predators, global warming, deforestation, and extinction, they are still not suitable dwelling places for them. Being raised naturally in the wild as opposed to in captivity provides animals with many benefits such as low…

No,because some actually help our environment but at the same time we should have rules on them.It's not quite redemption, but one of most loathed invasive species in the world—the European green crab has had a surprisingly positive effect on an ecosystem. On Cape Cod, Massachusetts, researchers have found that the crab is reversing a decades long trend of damage that other species has inflicted on salt marsh. It might be the first nice thing that the green crab has done for anyone. Another…

astonishing 175 million people visit zoos each year. That more than major league baseball, football, hockey and basketball, combined. People enjoy visiting zoos immensely, so why should we take that enjoyable and cherishable experience away?

They are originally from Peru, but in 1984 they were bought in by plains and large ships, but now they are banned from being brought into the…

to a zoo? Most people probably have. Some think that zoos are great while others think that they are awful. Personally, I feel that zoos are mostly good but can be bad. Zoos are good because they can educate and entertain people and also help with conservation efforts. However, zoos can be bad because of the treatment of the animals. Zoos are amazing places full of education and entertainment. They allow people to see exotic animals that they would never have been able to see normally. Zoos…

When was the last time you went to your local Zoo to see an animal in the wild? If you are like most people, it might have been when you were a child in grade school, or with your children or grandchildren in grade school. On the other hand, was it to see a new exhibit with a Lion or Tiger or even the Pandas from China? With the invention of television and social media, are Zoos a necessity? In the essay “Animal and Ethics”, written by Scott D. Wilson, an Associate Professor of Philosophy at…

their behavior to be abnormal and some people are trying to fix that. Animals are now being captured to help their health or to prevent extinction of the species. There are zoos that hold the animals and research them to learn,but sometimes to get more popular the zoos will put the “cute animals“ in cages so people will give the zoo more money. There are also parks where animals are put in a controlled environment so that the can be researched. While being researched they can be seen by the…

The article “Violence of football is becoming too difficult to justify” written for the Denver Post is titled and written in a way to that demands attention. Attempting an attack on America’s sport is something that will catch the eye of most readers. Groothuis writes for a sympathetic audience all the while using pathos as a guide to convince any reader, the author also crosses the line as he tries poisoning the well for any new, and inexperienced football fan. The NFL is a multi-billion…
