No: platypuses are not a good choice for the zoo. Platypuses need a specialised environment, and there are heavy restrictions on zoos keeping them, along with strict regulations which must be adhered to by any zoo or animal sanctuary. Also, few platypuses breed in captivity. All these are reasons why platypuses are not a good choice for a zoo.
duck dingo
Dingo (canis lupus dingo) has a life span of 10 years in the wild and about 13 years in captivity.
no, no animal should be forced into a cage for the amusement of visitors and the making of money for the people in charge.
The quokka would only be suitable in a large enclosure where they had plenty of thick tussock grass and shrubs in which to hide. Quokkas would not do well in plain, ungrassed cages.
yes it would
No. Platypuses are very sensitive to changes in the environment. While some platypuses are kept in sanctuaries and zoos, there are strict guidelines for developing a suitable platypus habitat. Also, very few platypus eggs have ever been hatched in captivity. An animal with a higher mortality rate than birth rate in captivity is not a good choice for a zoo.
I would say an elephant they are well trained and have good behavior
in some surcumestains yes.
There are good things about a zoo, like the fact we get to see animals up close, and they can be studied. The bad would be the animals are not in the wild.
I guess because a Zebra is one of the main creatures expected to be in a zoo, if i went to a zoo, i would expect to see a Zebra. If i owned a zoo, i would make sure i have a Zebra(s) instinctivly. I hope i answered the question correctly :).
There aren't any meerkats at the zoo. Lemurs are the Malagasy animal of choice.
