No, it's not cruel to keep them in a zoo, especially those that are recovering from injuries, and endangered species. They get proper food and supplements in their diet and protection from natural predators, poachers, and diseases.
Because the zoos keep the wild animals safe from hunters because they want the animals fur for coats
zoos are very cruel because they take this poor animals out of there home
Yes definitely. Technically all zoos are cruel, as they imprison animals and don't allow them to express their natural behaviours. Elephants get health problems they simply don't in the wild, and they go insane.
Yes because keeping zoos is important for animals to avoid extinction. Zoos help preserve species. Sometimes, zoos keep animals and then release them into the wild when the animal is mature enough. Zoos help save animals' lives. If they are disabled, people can help them.
Because some zoos don't keep the animals for entertainment. Some zoos are there for conservation efforts, which means that they take endangered animals out of the wild, to a saf place where they can breed. They then release the animals back into the wild in an attempt to allow their numbers to grow back into a healthy population.
Some people believe that keeping animals in zoos in cruel because they are trapped in cages for the enjoyment of humans. This is not always the case as many zoos have created entire ecosystems in which animals can thrive.
Some zoos have animals just for show and they breed them there. Other zoos just have endangered animals: animals that are injured and cannot survive in the wild, babies that have been abandoned or separated from their parents or endangered species. But some zoos have a mixture of both... :)
some zoos do but most dont
Whether or not there should be zoos in the world is a matter of personal opinion. Some people believe it is cruel to keep animals in a zoo environment while others think it is important.
Zoos educate people about wild animals and their care. They also take in and/or rehabilitate animals that have been injured, or care for animals that would not survive in the wild.
no
There are many reasons for this, these are only a few. * Many zoos give injured animals a refuge while they recover so they may be returned to the wild. * Some zoos have breeding programs that help keep some animals from extinction. * Some zoos offer a home to nuisance animals so they will not be put down. * Zoos offer a place for people to learn more about the effects they have on the world around them. * Many zoos have extensive research programs that allow scientist to be able to treat ailments and problems of animals in the wild as well. * Zoos keep animals away from their predators. * Zoos give human enjoyment and entertainment. * Zoos give people an opportunity to let people see real life animals * Zoos give animals the food which saves the animal from fighting another in order to receive its prey. (If its carnivorous!) * Zoos give animals shelter.
