How do you "ban" a zoo? that's what I want to know.
Unless it is to preserve endangered animals there really should not be zoos
No. Zoos are great for species that are being hunted to extinction and safe from hunters.
That's plain stupid. Zoos exist to preserve animals in danger of extinction.
Well, lets see, take away an animal's freedom for their own good? Yeah sounds like what any typical brain-dead, fucked up person would say.
no unless animals are taken care of nicely and given wide open space so that they can live in a natural way all throughout
I would say no! You want people to have a connection with nature so they are more willing to protect it. AS the saying goes outta sight outta mind.
yes. we should have animals roam free in their natural habitat, humans should be in caged vehicles to see them. Wild animals are known for developping depression when they live in captivity
No way, I have a better idea let's have predators hunting live prey, that would be worth seeing.
I don't think we should shut down all zoos just the ones that aren't well maintained.
a zoo like the one in that picture shouldn't exist. Big zoos are actually better than the wild as long as you give them some company like a pact of lions.
lol politicians have turned the world into a zoo lol
Yes unless the zoo is pretty HUUUUGE like that on Africa like an open zoo or whatever you call it
no, zoos are not only for human entertainment. They protect the animals from dangers from outside and breed endangered species.
So true... well said
No, zoo's should be banned on global scale. Rather a better guidelines should be presented with strict instructions. It depends on various factors.
Well good question if the animals are getting treated in a fair way then no, but if the are getting treat unfairly then yes!!!
No, people won't be able to animals from different parts of the world without going there if they did that
If the animal is greatly endangered because of poaching, then yes.
No. You can't 'ban' anything on a global scale either.
Yes. I believe that animals that need help and can't be put on nature by themselves can be treated without being displayed like products.
well then who's going to pay for the animals care then?
I can see your argument, but what would you say to the idea that it would kill conservation education and funding?
@KingOfMaise the zoologist duh!!! They actually go to college to study animals!!
@20sofia did you not see the word "pay" cause clearly you didn't
for any place to be successful it needs to make money to pay the zoologist and buy food and necessity for the animals
@KingOfMaise sorry
yes. because they should have freedom to live. but human beings are selfishly boned into cages. I support to bann zoo's.
i think they should be regulated on a global scale
Screw your 'regulations'. We already have WAY too many. And you want MORE?
Zoos? Yeah.
I think Safari parks are okay though (ASLONG as they're large)
I always get so upset in Zoos.
would you like to locked up. I have and it sucks. Would you lock up your child to amuse others?
there are plenty of zoos that double as research centers, those are all right.
No. Their services should be made better of how they keep the animals.
No. Zoo's bring awareness to conservation efforts
it depends how they care about animals in zoo's
yup, everytime i go to the zoo i always feel depressed and sad for these poor animals
They are perfectly happy and, safe. Most of the animals u see would not survive in the wild.
that makes 0 sense. they are wild animals the only reason they can't thrive is Because of human ignorance
Umm no sometimes the mother abandoneds the child, and if the animal was going extinct then it would be bad for them in the wild. Yes I know they r wild animals but sometimes there are snags in the way. Which by the way aren't human fault!!!
YEs i know ur probably like oh great ur a 14 year old u don't know what ur talking about. But actually I do. I probably know more about animals and, zoos in general. I got to go behind the scenes at one. I will use the knowledge I learned to help people appreciate zoos more.
Yeah that's part of life, but if we weren't constantly interfering with nature it wouldn't be as bad
Okay
I think they should be because I see them as living beings
yes. no questions asked
No they shouldn't be banned.
i can feel the pain of the poor lion here :/
yes. sanctuary or a wildlife Park is better.
Fuck no, everybody likes to visit the zoo. :)
hell yea they should
No, they're preserving endangered animals
Probably. You need to set animals free.
Yes, we should. Most of them, anyways.
Why do you say that?
@Nice_Guy_Last Because a lot of them don't do what is needed to keep the animals safe and happy.
What would you say to zoo reform as opposed to zoo abolisment?
anything is possible if you believe
Yes they all abuse their animals in some way.
not with the assholes we call poachers
Zoo's are fading out of existence
No there is a lot of good that comes out of zoos
yes zoo is like cage
zoos should be turned into safaris
we should ban feminism.
I like zoos so no.
yes captivity is cruel
You think captivity is cruel so shut down prisons. It is not cruel
Thats the point of a prison. keep captive a delinquent as a form of reprimend. But a lion or an elephant inside a zoo.. (say in nyc, say in nebraska, say anywhere they dont belong) IS captivity. as they were taken by force into that space. Far, very far from bieng a deliquient.
SOME zoos may have specialised clinics. But guess what! They need them to take care of animals.
My point is some zoos are ok. Santuaries are different from zoos. The majority of zoo should close because they are trash.
A zoo is just another business at the end of the day. And is a form of slavery.
there's a diffrence between prisons and locking wild animals in cages for the sole purpose of our entertainment. sanctuaries and wild reserves are very diffrent and mostly beneficial
@vashi54 Bad analogy: these animals are innocent, criminals are by definition not.
Captivity serves four purposes: education, funding, repopulation, and research. While there are zoos that need to be closed for maltreatment, blanketing them under the same category would remove the best available option for many species to survive. Without them, great conservationalists would have never reached the sane fame or effect on the public.
Nope.
Yes, if they're torturing animals.
Relax, this ain't Jurassic Park lol
Yepp
Why do you say that?
Haha I go to school at that zoo X3
yes..
Yes.
as much as it looks cruel, they're actually NEEDED
Go to YouTube
Type
little zoo
Answer no
Yes.
Don't know
