Why do zoo animals hurt people?

Answer 1

YES, zoo is a prison for animals who have been sentenced without trial.

When you cage an animal you take away the only thing it has; its free will.animals should be left alone so that they can rome around in the wild. It is OK if they are kept in big spaces like they are

Answer 2

All animals, (Same as humans,) can be unpredictable. Some Zoo animals, are under fed and mistreated.. Anything can spark them off. Also, many are stressed and upset about their environment They do not mean to hurt, they just want to be relived of their issue's.

Answer 3

Well in a way yes well at least I think so.

I think animals shouldn't be in captivity at all. All Zoos hunt there animals and snatch them from the forest or where ever they come from and in my opinion that is so wrong. They may in fact be even snatch the from may by mothers or Father. Many animals are shot are order to get them to the Zoos.

Answer 4

'ever' yes, like.. a couple of years ago.

all the big zoos don't abuse their animals,

but i think some Russians do.

(that might be stereotipical,

but they exist for a reason)

to answer your question:

Used to be, not anymore. (i hope)

Answer 5

Maybe if they step on trash that people threw in their cage but the zoo employees take care of them as much as they possibly can.

Answer 6

Yes, they also get hurt in zoos. They get hurt by their enclosure or by the people who sees them.

Answer 7

Not in the zoos that come under very strict regulations of the government, this depends a great deal on the country where the zoo is located.
