Marine mammal park

I believe, like many others, that keeping animals in captivity isn’t right. Keeping them in cages will make them feel lonely, because no matter what, you can’t copy their environment, and their family won’t be there. Some feel that it would be educational for us, and safer for them. However, research shows that animals are prepared for what’s out there for them, and it also shows the best way for us to learn is by watching them in their natural habitat. I believe that animals should be free for…

Their ideas grew into a marine zoological park. It grew into the marine park we know today. Shamu was one of the first orcas captured alive. This made her a very popular orca that a lot people knew about and wanted to go see. There are still a lot of disagreements with how she was treated. People still argue against the treatments of animals at SeaWorld. Based on research, SeaWorld treats their animals ethically and that they care for the animals they have at their parks. SeaWorld does more good…

Although it might seem as if there are no possible forms of animal captivity that provide the animals with proper care while simultaneously providing humans with a fruitful educational experience, there are sanctuaries that offer this type of encounter. Sanctuaries are superior to zoos and aquariums because their primary concern is to give the animals the proper care they require, even if that leads to limited human interaction. Rachel Shea, a reporter for National Geographic, describes…

The Ecological and Ethical Benefits of Zoos and Aquariums For as long as they have been around, zoos have been a place of joy and education. Filled with lions and tigers and bears every kid dreams of growing up to be just like the men and women who take care of these animals. Recently, however, the debate has popped up over whether keeping animals in a zoo is unethical because the animal is not in the wild, and it does not help resolve the extinction crisis happening in the natural homes of…

Main Point 3: Zoos and marine parks do not help endangered species. a. Sub-point A: Most endangered species are breed in captivity and stay captive since they become dependent on their owners. If they were sent out into the wild they would have a low chance of being able to survive on their own. b. Sub-point B: According to peta.org, babies bring in paying visitors to these amusement parks. In reality these babies are never going to be released into the…

When I was a young child, my parents took my brother and me to the Toronto Zoo, and I visited the site throughout my years in elementary school for field trips. I found a great pleasure in staring at these big, beautiful, and mysterious animals through the wide glass windows; and during the course of being adolescence, I marveled at the fact that, still, living in the city, we had the opportunity to be exposed to an animal in its “natural” habitat. (sites.psu.edu) However, amidst the entire fun…

Animals is a common way to make someone happy. When I go to a zoo or an aquarium I think are these animals happy. These animals could be in a better place, they can be free and not there for the enjoyment of humans. Although most animal experts believe that animal captivity is for the better, others consider animal captivity is an unnatural environment for animals to be in. Animal captivity means the state or period of being held, imprisoned, enslaved, or confined. Animal captivity is a…

Zoos, aquariums, and circuses. These places have been part of most childhoods, and have created many memories. Circuses show animals jumping through animals, doing superhuman feats. Aquariums display exotic and rare sea creatures for enjoyment, and zoos exhibit extraordinary animals. Many people have taken these places for granted. However, what happens to these animals behind the scenes, or even out in the open can be considered inhumane. The zoo is one of the main suspects in cases of…

When confined in a single space for a prolonged period of time, the lack of unrestricted movement and increase of boredom and loneliness begins to take a toll on animals’ mental stability. If ever released from captivity, whether being a zoo or factory farm, emotional shock prevents animals from living unaffected by what they previously endured. Self-clutching, rocking or pacing back and forth, and refusing to eat are telltale signs of psychological distress, especially in primates. In multiple…

Are there dangers in zoos toward animals held in captive? The correct answer is yes, there are many. Elaborating on that, zoos should not be holding large animals in captive. Holding large animals in captive is bad because a lot of animals play an important role in their environment, many of their physical needs aren't met by zoos, and their lives are often shorter if their born in a zoo. If we take animals out of their environment, that will hurt the environment(“A zoo”). All animals play an…
