Talking about Zoos


      I personally don´t like the existence of zoos, because I think wild animals should live in their habitat and have free space to run, hunt and do what they would do in their freedom, and this is not possible for them in zoos, because in zoos are enclosed in a small space normally. Many species, including endangered species such as pandas and elephants are notoriously difficult to breed in captivity, there is also the problem of genetic diversity. 


In small populations there can be problems associated with inbreeding, which can result in genetically weaker offspring. These offspring are more vulnerable and less likely to survive in the wild. Keeping an animal in a small area can cause the animals to get depressed and stop eating. 

Animals need their natural habitat, don´t live in their habitat could cause an animal to act differently than it would in the wild. Zoo enclosures are typically inadequate for the animals needs. For example, the average enclosure size for mammals in UK zoos is one hundred times smaller than their minimum home range in the wild. I like that the animals are well, so I am against the existence of zoos.
