Some people think that zoos serve no useful purpose in society whereas others hold an opposite view. As for me, I would like to side with the former people because it is good for education especially for children. Also, it helps to hire more people.
To begin with, zoos motivate children to have a creative mind. Of course it is not the only way of educating, but in my opinion, it is one of the most effective ways of doing so. To illustrate my point, people hardly get a chance to see animals except dogs or cats in their life. However, zoos have a positive effect on it. If children visit a zoo, they can learn how to take care of animals through feeding them by themselves. I firmly believe that it can be also adapted to their life. Plus, they can get rid of stress by visiting zoos and watching various animals. It will make them to have a creative mind and give them good childhood memories. This is one of the main reasons why I argue against the statement that zoos have no advantages in our life.
In addition, zoos can contribute the problem of unemployment. As everyone knows that this is a major issue these days because there are no enough empty spaces for unemployed people. However, zoos can offer some jobs for people who do not have a job. This is because, zoos are usually very big and it needs a lot of hands. To exemplify what I mean, there should be people who collect garbage, who can take care of animals, who sell tickets, and who sell snacks for visitors. People even can be street artists by performing in zoos. I am sure that there is no limitation to accept people in such a big place. This is another reason why I oppose the statement that zoos serve no useful purpose in society.
Taking all of these into account, zoos have many good aspects in our society because it enhances education quality for children and it helps to make more people to work. There is no doubt in my mind that zoos will beneficial for our society. |
