animals suffering from extreme stress and depression is increasing daily. Zoos teach people it is acceptable to interfere with animals in their natural habitat and continue to place them into captivity; depriving them of open space, herds, and control over their life. A large percentage of the animals living in zoos are captive bred, and are traded between zoos their entire life. Many people believe that the animals held in zoos are an endangered…

The zookeeper's may be surprised that keeping animals in cages is actually bad for them. Keeping endangered species in a enclosed area and keeping them healthy is letting the animals have a safe place to live right? Wrong! Sure it lets them reproduce, but it is not the best way to keep them from danger. It hurts there natural hunting skills, Reproduction is slowed, and Releasing them back in the wild can be a pain. It hurts there hunting skills, if they are being fed, getting water, getting…

his Cincinnati zoo enclosure as he protected Isiah, a child that had fallen into his chamber. The panicked visitors screamed and shouted as they feared for Isiah’s life. Suddenly, a few men wielding hunting rifles appeared. Little did Harambe know, he was breathing his last breaths, and they would be in captivity. The men launched a barrage of bullets at Harambe as he fell to the ground. What did he do to deserve this? One thing’s for sure: Harambe would not have died if this zoo didn’t exist,…

#9 Why Zoos Should Not be Aloud Although zoos are really cool to visit, I think Zoos should not be allowed, because the animals are caged up and not aloud to see the real world. Sure people don't get to see these animals, but I'm ok without seeing a kangaroo, if I do see them it would be nice, but I'm ok see them on the tv and that's enough. Animals at zoos are sometimes even taken away from their family to be at different zoos like the dad at the LA zoo and the mom at palm beach zoo. Zoos…

Harambe, a 440 lb western lowland gorilla occupying a small pen in the Cincinnati zoo. Many gazed at his magnificence and maybe one day wanting to share the moment that brings a smile to your face with their future family; sadly there is one big reason why that will never happen, this big reason is summed up into one big, scary word. Violence. Many people loved Harambe and wanted people to know it. There are numerous rhymes, songs, and sayings expressing people’s love and miss for the beloved…

Just about every person loves a good zoo. People go to zoos to see and learn about all the animals. It is a excellent adventure for the whole family to enjoy. There are several zoos across the nation that have received the highest accolades. Take for instance just about everyone has been to or heard of the Ft Worth and San Diego zoos. These zoos are some of the most prestigious zoos around. Now let us take a look at the El Paso Zoo. The zoo has only two hundred and twenty two animals…

prolonged, public, and heated. The topic I will be focusing on are zoos and whether or not some of them are actually beneficial to the animals that live there. Some people will argue and say zoos are a cruel form of entertainment for people dicised as a place made to shelter and help the animals. Others will say that the people who disagree with zoos are not properly educated about what some zoos really do and how they have changed. Some zoos are beneficial to the animals that live there.…

this project my initial standpoint was that all forms of animal captivity are wrong. I still stand by this in terms of SeaWorld, circus animals and wildlife parks that simply do not care about the animal’s welfare but what has really changed my mind on the topic is UK Zoos. From communicating with Flamingo Land, Blackpool Zoo and Belfast Zoo, it seems like they all have one common goal in mind; conservation and making sure the animals are fit, healthy and meet with the standards of BIAZA. I feel…

zookeeper to fool visitors to think the zoo had more than one groundhog. The Zoo made a special hole for the groundhog for Groundhog Day. Before the groundhog goes into hibernation for the winter, the zookeeper moves him into a special lock room that emulates outdoors. Early Tuesday morning on Groundhog Day at 6:00 a.m., the zookeeper would carefully place the groundhog on a special made sliding floor, in order, to slide the groundhog to the outdoors living habitat. The Zoo covered the outside…

Zoos have been a popular destination for people for as long as they have existed. It is exciting to go see the animals.

It can create quite a rush and bring excitement to those peering through the animal’s habitat. There are many things that bring people to the zoo and many good deeds done by the zoo. However, there are also major welfare issues that needed to be addressed as…
