People say animal captive is dangerous to the animal. People say zoos are better for animals because it keeps the population of that animal up that way it doesn’t go extinct, but i think the animals should be the wild unless they are tameable animals like dogs, cats, and horses. When the animals are in the zoos they can get small area to climb, fly, swim, roam, or run. If the animals in the zoos were in the wild they can mate, find food, or find water on their own. I have three reasons, why it…

After entering the museum space, I quickly discovered that the Shrem Museum has many strict rules. I was told that I couldn't use pens and that I couldn't take pictures of certain pieces; therefore, I felt a little unwelcomed by the staff. However, the museum space was very open, light, and inviting. The video installation, Hoof & Foot: A Field Study, by Chris Sollars evoked many thoughts, as well as confusion. I could identify that the video drew parallels between animals and humans, and I…

Cameron Park Zoos’ history explains how the zoo started, and how it became a main attraction of Waco today. A small group of animals in the 1950s grew into the Cameron Park Zoo Central Texans know today. The small collection of animals was put together to educate visitors, as well as show real, live animals to the public of Central Texas. In 1955, wildlife volunteers displayed mammals and reptiles at the Heart O’Texas Fair. As a result, people started donating money in support of the formation…

There are 471 giraffes in the U.S. but only 95 zoos that have giraffes. There are not enough zoos for so many giraffes. I think that we should either construct bigger cages, more zoos, giraffe sanctuaries, or send some giraffes back to the savanna in Africa. Did you know that giraffes live for about 25-30 years? Giraffes are big animals and need space. Having too many giraffes in a small enclosed space is harmful to their development. The possibility for the animals to roam over miles of…

Have you ever been to a zoo and seen happy, protected animals? Well, that happens all the time at most zoos. When you are younger, it seems like zoos are all about entertainment, but really the zoos are protecting the animals. In “The Stripes will Survive,” they create comfortable spaces for the animals, and use a family tree for selective breeding, and they keep away poachers. In “The Zoos Go Wild,” they made the habitat bigger, they put Willie the gorilla with 3 other women, and they kept him…

This story is only one of the dozens and dozens exotic pet attacks. Exotic animals should not be pets because they can be dangerous, and wild animals will always be wild animals, even in captivity. With over 70 exotic pet attacks within the last 20 years, exotic pets are known to grow up and…

The souless Chinese are at it again. It's bad enough that they steal pets, then sit around laughing as they watch the the dog screaming in pain as it gets boiled alive, but it seems China never fails to show the world what a souless, decrepit society they really are. Some historians say the Great Wall of China was built to keep the world from entering... I believe the wall was built to keep this disgusting mnoralless society in and therebykeeping the world safe from this repugnant society.…
