The government puts effort to keep zoos to provide the advantages for people. Even though many people have opposite ideas of keeping zoos, I definitely support them due to the fact that zoos provide the best educational practice opportunity to students and protect the animals that are in danger in nature.
To begin with, one of the best ways to learn educational information is going to field trip. Looking at the actual object that is related to what they are learning is very beneficial way to learn. And Zoos contribute to it. From my personal experience, I went to a field trip for biology class. We were learning the different characteristic and appearance of birds. While I had to learn the information about the birds by memorizing in class, I was able to learn about them in effective ways and actually experience them when I went to the zoo. Also the features I indicated remain for a long time.
In addition, having a zoo is crucial for the endangered animals. Many animals are in the extinct situation because of the lack of the sources that are needed for them to live. However as they stay in zoo, they are provided the best nutrition and places. According to study, tigers in Korea were in extinct situation. So the government planned to protect them in zoos that are eligible to provide the best circumstance. By doing so, the tigers were kept from extinction and didn't have to be struggling in nature.
In this sense, zoo is not only for the purpose of displaying the animals to people, but it also gives big advantages of providing an opportunity of practical education and keeping the endangered animals from the extinction circumstance. For these reasons, people need to support zoos and consider many purposes of having them. |
