Have you ever felt so intrigued by the way animals preform in the circus? Did you wonder how they learned to do those amazing tricks? For someone who loves animals as much as I do, it is very displeasing to learn that animals are not doing this for their own enjoyment, but instead being forced to do so for our own enjoyment. First, I will be speaking on the wrong doings of the circuses, in which they use many animals in a very cruel way to make money for themselves. The circus has been the…

while some wild pets are bred in captivity, many are taken from their native habitats. Millions of animals are forced into the exotic pet trade every year for the purpose of becoming someone's pet or entertaining the masses in a circus or roadside zoo. People are enthralled with the idea to own an exotic animal as a pet but as the animal grows up, the owner soon realizes that they can no longer take care of the animal and many people just set them loose in the wild, resulting in disrupting the…

progression, and origin of different types of animals. A zoologist may choose to devote their entire studies to just one breed of animal or they can choose to study multiple, it just depends on what the individual is interested in. Some zoologist work at zoos, taking direct care of the animals, which is the basic idea of this career, that everyone has.

Assistant at the Los Angeles Zoo Koala House. It was here she was able to learn a great deal about animals you don’t usually get to spend a lot of time with; Koalas, Echidnas, and Sugar Gliders just to name a few.

Kari moved as well and was hired as a zookeeper at the San Jose Zoo. She worked as a…

I did not physically go to a museum for this assignment, but I did do the virtual tour of the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History. When I started the virtual tour of the Smithsonian Museum of Natural History, the Rotunda room is where I first experienced. Seeing only the giant elephant in this room, I moved onto the Mammal Hall. Seeing all of mammals from around the world was very captivating and informative. Of course I know enough about mammals to know which country some of them conquer and…

Shenandoah National Park Home to many of nature’s wonders, Shenandoah National Park is known for its varied species of animals to their amazing landscape. Located in Virginia, the park’s towering mountains, was partly formed by the Appalachian mountain range, known as the Blue Ridge Mountains. On one side of the mountains, the vast forest and lush valleys border the Blue Ridge mountains. Formed by the clashing of tectonic plates billions of years ago, the mountain range now houses the…

The first time I got to see a exotic animals was at the Zoo. I saw a whole bunch of exotic animals like tigers, lions, elephants, snakes and more. Though I believe exotic animals should be legal. I think they should be legal because if they ban exotic animals why don't they ban cars. More people die from cars than exotic animals per year. Cars can be deadlier than exotic animals. When I read both stories I believed that the “Let people own exotic animals” had great support about having…

animal, nor more present in and aware of the fascinations of nature. Historically, zoos have come a long way from entertainment facilities to conservations education centers designed to inspire its audiences. Yet, they have always been controversial even until this day. According to architect and zoo director David Hancocks, author of A Different Nature: The Paradoxical World of Zoos and Their Uncertain Future, zoos have served as an ironic dichotomy of a “humans hold for Nature while…

Zoos and aquariums provide endless entertainment for most of the population, but for the animals in cages, tanks, and terrariums, it is not so fun. The animals in zoos and aquariums are stolen from a vast and endless environment and are then shoved into a smaller setting. They can no longer hunt, exercise, and bond with other animals. The animals are solely kept, to make profit for businesses. To make more money, animals are forced to breed, as it is found that humans loves to watch newborn…
