Zoos: Good or Bad

Hey guys i'm back with another blog. Today I will be talking about zoos and is there good or bad. Some pros and cons about zoos are:

Pros:                                                                                           Cons:

- They help injured animals                                                         - Captive animals             
- They are educational tools                                                        - Habitats may not be right
- A safe place for endangered animals                                        -  The animals can get depressed

Zoos are good because they help injured animals in need. They are also very educational because you can go and see animals in real life and watch them in there habitats. They are also a safe place for endangered animals so we don't lose more species. Zoos are also bad because they keep animals captive, sometimes they don't keep animals safe or they don't feed them the right amount. The animals habitats may not be the right temperature or may not have the right plants. Also the animals can get depressed. They can get depressed if they are kept from other animals of there species or other animals they would usually be around in the wild. Some zoos are amazing. They can have habitats that are perfect for the animals and feed them so they are basically hunting for food in the wild. But some zoos can have the worst habitats for the animals. They can have the worst ones because they might not have enough room for the animals to run around, and they may not feed them enough or if they are the type of animals that usually hunt for the food, the zoos may not feed them in that way. Here are some examples of good and bad zoo habitats can you see which one is the good habitat and which one is the bad habitat?

Overall I think that zoos can be good, if they have the right equipment and the right food for the animals especially if they have the right habitats. but zoos can be very bad if they don't have the right food for the animals and if they don't have a big enough habitat. Here's a picture of the difference between the wild and  habitat:

 The zoo may look very nice and a very good habitat. But you can see that the in the wild the elephants are around more of there own kind, and they have much more room to run around.

What's your take on this? Do you think zoos are good or bad?
