It is often said that zoo is harmful for animals because they have to be confined in artificail artificial envronment. I belive, even though the zoo deprives the wildness from animals, it has to keep operating in modern society for the following two reasons: securing the spiece diversity, and infroming informing people to the importance of coexsitence coexistence of animail animals and human.
To begin with, zoos can secure the diversity of animal spieces by ivestigating investigating and carring animails animals, especially those in the danger of extinction. There are people calling the zoos, a Noa's boat, for rare animals animalls, because zoos the zoo not only shows animalls animals to visitors, but also act is used as a labortory laboratory for researching and explore various animals which can not survive endangered in current environment. This is due to the fact that the pollution in mordern society makes many animals be endangered. Thus, they need specaial special attention and care for keeping their life and reproducing, and the zoos play a pivital vital role in that. An independent documentary director, Youn Whang, for instance, has been insisting the importance of the zoos to protect the animals in danger because of the inappropriate circumstances caused by rural development and massive deforestation in today's society.
Next, the zoos provide the opportunities of humans to connect to with animals,and recognize the importance of nature and coexistence with animals. Now, many people have usually fogotten the fuctions of other creatures on earth because of their busy and hectic schedule. We humans are easy to only focus on civilized human life. Neverthless, it is important to realize that our their lives are related to the whole nature including wild animals.Unfortunately, humans can not have these chances, though. While people visit zoos, they can remind the importance of animals. Acccording to a survery conducted by the Ministry of Environment of Korea in 2007, biologists have arugued that the experience of visiting zoos has a positive effect on the education for children to perceive the importance of protecting animals. This result shows that zoos play a important role in imform informing poeple the affirmative perspectives towards environment protection.
