Zoo

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 one has at a facility like the zoo, can zoos be telling…

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…

Zoos Did you know that most zoos are treating animals vary badly? Well some people believe that zoos are very good to the animals. I disagree because the zoos use the animals for selfish gains, ill handling of animals and also suiravel of the fittest. In my opinion animals should not be held captivity because most of the animals there can change to sick and also are upset for the people who see them in the zoos. To begin zoos often just want make money off the animals by not paying…

From zoos, to aquariums, to petting zoos, and even our own pets, humans have always been fascinated by animals, and have gone to certain extents to use them for learning purposes, preservation, survival, companionship, and occasionally entertainment. Menageries allow people to learn about animals from a safe distance and see some animals which they would never have seen if it were not for wildlife parks. Many argue that captive animals are not happy in their environment, and should be set free…

are if a person has swam with dolphins, fed a giraffe, or interacted with a whale, they were visiting a zoo or aquarium (Hulick 1). Children that are involved in these activities are often jubilant and engrossed by tons of animals as they stroll through zoos all around the world. What they are not aware of is that these animals are not elated or healthy being restrained in these zoos. Circuses, zoos, and other sanctuaries harm animals just to entertain people around the world. They enhance the…

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…

has been many zoos in the past but did you know that recently scientist have found remains of a zoo in egypt. Many scientist believe that egypt had the very first zoo in 3500 bc and this zoo contain baboons, elephants, and hippos. Now Zoos have been around for a long time and it is amazing that we have just discover a zoo that is believed to exist in 3500 bc. The first few zoos that where well known started in the 1950s but during that time there weren't very many animals in zoos at the time…

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 it is important to protect our wildlife from poachers…

Have you ever been to the zoo? You probably have on a field trip, or a family outing! Did you notice animals that look angry? You probably did. You may have noticed this because the animals did not enjoy being kept in captivity all day without being in their natural habitat. Zoos do not provide a natural habitat for animals. The animals don’t have room to roam in zoos. Due to not having enough room, they are cramped up in cages. Animals that have been removed from the wild do not know how to…

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…
