Yes!! we should get rid of Zoos. They are prisons to animals, they should be able to run free. They could get out of their cages and attack humans!! It's for our own and the animals own good.
This depends on your opinion. Here's mine. Good zoos, the ones who take good care of the animals and provide opportunities for education and helps endangered species to grow back, should stay. Bad zoos, where animals are used only for entertainment, are cruel and should go. Of course, it would help tremendously if people would stop poaching killing, and destroying animals' territories in the first place.

Why is bad to keep animals in zoos?
I think Zoos are miserable places for animals. For example, one of the reasons why I think zoos are bad for animals is that zoos can’t provide sufficient space for the animals. Animals should be able to roam, run, and feel free in their natural habitats, but they can’t because they are in cages. The animals often get bored and you can see them walking back and forth in their cages looking for something to do. Many animals need more room to run around and get rid of some of their energy.

Why do zoos do more harm than good?
Zoos are considered to "do more harm than good" simply from an extremist abolitionist animal rights' stand point. To see such points expressed in a sensational manner, please see the related link below to read PETA's (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals) views and facts on animals' lives at the zoo.
It should not go without being said, however, that zoos are there to educate people about the animals raised there and natural conservation practices that go into the maintaining of wild populations of certain wildlife. Many people cannot nor do not have enough money to go on a round-the-world trip to see all the animals they can simply got to a zoo to see, and nor would they invest or donate the money to save certain animals in other countries. They would, however, pay to see such animals to give their children the kind of experience they would never get if no such animal sanctuaries existed, as well as learn things about the animals that will never be found close to their own home.
Zoos are also there to help breed and increase population of species that are considered endangered, critical or near extinction, or to establish a population of animals that are needed because animals in the wild are facing serious crisis (such as a rare cancerous disease in Tasmanian Devils) that could lead to their extinction. Animals at many zoos are treated humanely and always with their welfare in mind; many animals (which constitute most, if not all) born and raised in zoos are not able to survive out in the wild should they be released. This is because they have recieved too much human exposure and training to be deemed able to survive on their own looking for food and escaping dangers such as predators and more aggressive animals of their species. Exceptions are animals raised in conditions where they do not receive adequate human exposure to render them tame because of the plan to release them into the wild. An example of this is the raising of Black-footed Ferrets to be released back into their natural grassland habitat in southern Saskatchewan.

What are some reasons against keeping animals in zoos?
Animals should not be kept in zoos because most people go to the zoo purely for their entertainment and truly I think that animals were not created for our entertainment. We shouldn't put animals lower than us. Which means that in my point of view animals should be allowed to enjoy their habitat, live with there family freely, instead of living in a zoo trapped behind bars, living with whatever other animals the keepers want in the same enclosure. Without a pack or pride, and not allowed to breed, sounds like a nightmare to me. Imagine yourself trapped behind bars and people come to see you for their own amusement, and entertainment. You are not in your original habitat, and you lack the support of your family and friends, also the food you eat is a type of food you don't normally eat. If you don't like it well too bad, you have to eat it or you will die of hunger. So, this might be how animals feel living in zoos and we need to be understanding, and considerate of their circumstances.
Animals are born wild, they should live and die wild . It is also wrong because the animals don't get to behave naturally, like hunting their prey, breeding, and social activities such as packs and prides. All of these things would help them adjust to the captivity in a more healthy manner.
To figure the amounts of medications, vits, and food for the animals math is needed. You would need to know how many of each animal, and then use that to figure how much food to prepare for each animal. You'd need to count all the animals, to make sure all were accounted for and none were missing. Also, you'd need to use math for deciding when to set-up schedules for breeding the animals. Math is used in all everyday life, not just in zoos, but they are a good example.
