It took a long time for zoos to come to The United States. In 1861, the first zoo was New York City’s Central Park, but it was not much more than a modest menagerie.

Some say zoos are wicked or evil, some may say zoos are great and interesting. In my opinion, I'd go with the fact that they're great and interesting. The main point of zoos is to educate people and save animals, but mostly save the animals. In fact, some animals live longer in the wild! Take giraffes for instance, they live up to 26 in the wild, but they live way longer in zoos than in their natural habitat. Therefore, just like Newton's 3rd law; for every reaction there's an equal, opposite…

Zoos are a form of animal cruelty because they keep animals confined. According to the Humane Society of the United States, animal cruelty can either be deliberate abuse or negligence towards an animal. This savagery takes place in environments that people feel should be safe for animals which are ultimately unsafe and unhealthy. In the article “The Reality of Zoos”, Michelle Carr said, “It instantly became very clear to me that the animals imprisoned in zoos are sad and don’t want to be kept in…

around needs to pay more attention in the way zoos are programing all around the world. Every single day, animals are being held captive and have no freedom, and those animals might be tortured without people knowing about it. Many people should make a statement and protest against this controversial issue. Even the zoos, aquariums, and circuses make a lot of profits by putting out ton of shows, but most of the viewers do not that deep down inside the zoos use those captive wild animals as an…

Abstract This paper looks at the behavior of lions in zoos. Zoos are critical in the education and conservation for animals. They provide people with many opportunities and encounters with animals that are otherwise nearly impossible. Having these opportunities lead me to believe that humans effect the way that animals behave in zoos. It is not natural that these animals interact with humans on a regular basis. Such drastic changes in their environment led me to think that some change in…

specialist starting at $77,000 and working my way up to an average of $115,000 per year. (My Footpath, 2013). The theory of expected utility takes into account there being three types of individuals-risk neutral, risk adverse, and risk taker. The Prospect Theory places a higher premium on risk adverse behavior because remaining in the status quo is a less risky proposition in the short term and causes potential less psychological impairment of the individual. Figure 1 show the expected…
