Animals in captivity often live longer in captivity than in the wild for many reasons.
1.] No hunters
2.]No natural predators
3.]Always have food and water available
4.] Have veterinary care available
5.] Beasts of burden like elephants, oxen, mules etc. are not made to work.
It depens on what animal you mean some live longer in captivity and some live shorter lives in captivity, but normally animals have much better lives in Zoos some zoos that is. Not all Zoos treat animals well. But I have to say the NC Zoo is one of the best jkjk
Yes and no. The depending factor is how well the animal is taken care of in captivity. If it is not given the right environment or fed correctly it will not live. Animals in the wilderness at least can fend for themselves for the most part.
Sea Lions live longer in captivity. An average life span for a sea lion in the wild is 18 years and 23 in captivity. But, that does not mean an animal in the wild can't live longer than one in captivity.
yes
because they have people to take care of them
Yes. Animals are safe from predators in captivity. Also, veterinarians have a major role in the prolonging of animals lives. http://onthescene.blogs.foxnews.com/2008/04/10/longevity-of-zoo-animals-increasing/
No. In the wild, they can live up to 30 years. In captivity, they live a little bit longer.
Beleive it or not an endangered species would live longer in the wild than in captivity. They also have a better chance of reproducing young in the wild,giving them a better chance of not being endangered.
they live longer in captivity but they aren't happy because they are whiped and beated so they will preform good on stage and then the people will make more money (im doing a report on this so i know all about it
There are many reasons why plants can live longer than animals. One reason is that plants have thicker protective layers.
Koalas living in captivity, such as a zoo, if they are fed and cared for properly, will probably live a little longer than they would in the bush.
Loons can live significantly longer in captivity than in the wild, often reaching ages of 20 to 30 years. In some cases, they have been known to live even longer under human care. Factors such as a controlled environment, regular food supply, and absence of predators contribute to their extended lifespan in captivity.
