Are zoos a good thing?
Critics of zoos would argue that animals often suffer physically and mentally by being enclosed.
Even the best artificial environments can't come close to matching the space, diversity, and freedom
that animals have in their natural habitats. This deprivation causes many zoo animals to become
stressed or mentally ill. Capturing animals in the wild also causes much suffering by splitting up
families. Some zoos make animals behave unnaturally: for example, marine parks often force
dolphins and whales to perform tricks.
On the other hand, by bringing people and animals together, zoos have the potential to educate
the public about conservation issues and inspire people to protect animals and their habitats. Some
zoos provide a safe environment for animals which have been mistreated in circuses, or pets which
have been abandoned. Zoos also carry out important research into subjects like animal behaviour and
how to treat illnesses.
