A zoo has no useful purpose. Do you agree or disagree? |
It is debatable whether zoo is useful or not. Some people say that it is no useful and even harmful for the animals who live in the zoo because they cannot live freely. However I strongly believe that zoo is very useful and we need it because zoo is the place where children can learn animals by touching and zoo can protect the endangered animals. First of all, children can learn animals more directively. Of course, they can learn from their textbooks. But this cannot be sufficient. Learning by just watching pictures and memorizing species, traits is superficial. The more important thing is learning by experiences. Experiences can be the best teacher. In my case, when I was young, I often went to the zoo. I met many animals and fed them. I could touch the animals and my families also had a good time. This was very impressive. Now, I still memorize animals whom I watched and zoo reminds me of having a good time. so zoo can play a positive role to children who study. Furthermore, zoo can protect endangered animals. There are many species who are threatened extinction. If the zoo did not protect animals, they would be disappeared very easily. Zoo is the trial of people who love animals. The animals can eat well, exercise regularly, mate others and give rise babies. This helps the animals to continue their existence. They can be protected more safely. For example, in my country, the central zoo protect the bears who remained few. This was very common species in Korea at old days, however nowadays this bears become unique because people catched and killed them for money without thinking. So the zoo protect the animals from extinction. In conclusion, zoo is the place we need because it is the place children can study and can protect the animals. |
