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.

zoo's are a good thing.

I think they are good. A way for us to marvel at the beauty of the animals, and while some may say they should be in the wild and it's cruel to keep them, it means they are guaranteed food, shelter and safety.

In a way they are keeping them from the wild and making them be a show. But on the other hand these animals are endangered and breeding them helps keep the number of them up. And if they lived in a rainforest they could have been killed so they have saved there lives so there not cruel

Elephants are the largest land mammal, but the biggest mammal in the world is not on land, but in the ocean--whales are definitely the largest mammals in the world.

Zoos ruin animal life. Animals should be free. Now, domestic animals wouldn't survive out in the wild.

Zoo animals paly with their caretakers.They also have fun sometimes by mating that is by having sex with their parteners.Zoo animals though cannot move freely.Sometimes they enjoy that is with their cartakers or have sex.

Yes, zoos do protect animals. If they were out in the wild many wouldn't have any chance of surviving. But in zoos their food, water, any supplements, or shots they need are brought to them. Any medical attention they need is available for them. They are usually cared for and have enough room to move, play, and many times they are given "enrichment toys and food". Plus they are protected from their predators, and babies abandoned are hand reared. Almost all zoos protect the animals from the visitors too, not allowing the guests to harass them, throw things at them, or be too loud, or taunt the animals. It's not always perfect or ideal, but as a general rule, most zoos that are accredited, or certified do try to protect and care for their animals.

The word zoo is defined as a park or an institution where animals are kept, studied, bred and exhibited for public viewing. You can have as many kinds of zoos as animals. Zoo's can contain just mammals, fish, reptiles, domestic, wild, and the list goes on.

better then dyeing, maybe. better then living elsewhere, no.

yes....although not natural humans can look after them....this includes suitable diet, eliminating competition and predators and often encouraging reproduction.

A zoo is an artificial habitat. Zoos seek to recreate a natural habitat for the safety and survival of their inhabitants.

One would not say that an elephant's natural habitat is a ZOO, for example. Ask yourself, are there animals that are only ever found living in a zoo? If not, then it is not a habitat in the strictest sense. The same logic goes for farms and aquariums.

The number of visitors on a daily basis depends on a variety of factors, including the weather and which zoo. The Pittsburgh Zoo sees hundreds of visitors daily.

9pm-5pm. Guests can remain inside until 6pm

There really isn't any parking at all at the Central Park Conservatory. The Central Park Conservatory is a part of Central Park, and Central Park is surrounded by city streets. It doesn't have a parking lot or anything like that. If you can find a parking space, then you can park on the street outside the entrance to the Conservatory (which would be 5th Avenue at 105th Street), but there is no reserved parking for people going to the Conservatory.

I was able to find a list of parking garages around Central Park, but most of them are relatively far away. The closest one I could find was on 94th Street between 3rd and 2nd Avenues. That is about a mile away from the entrance to the Conservatory.

See the Related Links below for more information. The first link shows you a picture of Vanderbilt Gate, which is the only street entrance to the Central Park Conservatory. As you can see, you enter directly off the street.

The second link is from the Central Park website. It describes the Conservatory Garden, and if you click the little button on top that says "Map It," it will show you where the Conservatory is in the park.

The third link is to the list of parking garages, just in case you want to use one of them.

The Cleveland Zoo in Cleveland, Ohio is well managed.Are we going to the zoo?

After visiting the zoo, we went to the carnival.

The Bronx Zoo receives fresh blood daily in order to feed the Vampire Bats. They have one of the largest exhibits of bats on display in captivity. Though from recent reports, this practice may be stopped soon, as the "World of Darkness", which housed all the Bats, is being closed, along with several other exhibits. The Zoo is taking this action "in response" to the economy. The Bronx Zoo had over 2 million visitors last year. For more details, please see the sites listed below.

The area of Bronx Zoo is 1,072,416.951936 square meters.

Zoos in various countries have requirements for animal cages sizes. Minimum is usually around four times the animal's size, but some animals need more room than others to forage or wander about.

yes it is. to keep an animal outta its natural habbit is not natural. think about it. would u like to be kept in an area were everything was regulated by someone else.... what a minute i guess ppl are kinda like that with our rules and regulations so maybe it isn't so wrong maybe everyone and every animal that is caught by "the man" has to.

The largest Zoo will depend on what you are judging, the actual area the zoo covers, the number of animals on site, or the number of guests per day/year. The Berlin Zoologicial Garden, is the largest if you are counting animals as the deciding factor. They have 14,000 animals from 1,500 different species, in only 86 acres. It was the first Zoo to open in Germany, opening in 1844. For more details about this zoo see the web site listed below.

Exactly the same as pet/field animal veterinarians. Do operations, scans, blood tests, check ups, all that kind of stuff. The only differences are they do it on animals that live in zoos, not peoples animals, and they also use tranquiliser darts to get the animal to sleep for operations.
